Selling Your Home
in Kitsap County
You've invested years into your home. Let's make sure the sale reflects that — with the right price, the right strategy, and the right marketing to reach the right buyers.
Most Homes Don't Sell Themselves
Selling a home is one of the biggest financial decisions you'll make. The difference between a great sale and a frustrating one often comes down to three things: pricing, marketing, and preparation.
Overprice it, and your home sits on the market while buyers move on. Underprice it, and you leave money on the table. Market it poorly, and the right buyers never even know it exists.
That's where I come in. With 25+ years in Kitsap County and a marketing strategy built around professional video, photography, and digital advertising, I make sure your home gets seen by the right buyers — and sells for what it's worth.
3 Steps to a Successful Sale
A proven system that gets results in the Kitsap market.
Marketing Your Home
Your home deserves more than a few photos on the MLS. My marketing strategy is designed to create maximum exposure and make your property unforgettable.
Professional Video & Photography
High-quality video walkthroughs and photography that highlight your home's best features. Full-length tours, short-form social content, and neighborhood highlight reels.
Dedicated Property Website
Your home gets its own webpage with all photos, videos, and details in one place — giving buyers a unique, memorable experience with your property.
Digital & Social Advertising
Targeted campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Google — including geotargeted ads for local buyers and Google Ads to reach buyers relocating to Kitsap County.
AI-Ready Optimization
More and more buyers are using ChatGPT and other AI tools to search for homes. I optimize your listing and property details to be discoverable by these tools — ensuring your home appears in AI-powered recommendations and searches, not just traditional MLS queries.
Print & Community Marketing
Custom printed materials with QR codes linking directly to your property website, distributed throughout Kitsap County. Plus listing on NWMLS, Zillow, Redfin, and more.
Pricing Your Home Right
We could do everything else perfectly, but if the price is wrong, the home won't sell. Having lived in Kitsap County since 1995, I bring deep local knowledge combined with real-time market data.
Comparative Market Analysis
I analyze recent sales, current listings, and buyer activity in your specific neighborhood — not just zip code averages.
Strategic Pricing
Whether we price to generate competition or maximize asking price depends on your market, your home, and your timeline. We'll build the right strategy together.
Real-Time Adjustments
I tour homes weekly and track what's selling, what's sitting, and what buyers are responding to — so your pricing stays sharp from day one.
Being Show Ready
Once buyers are at the door, the home needs to deliver. Small details make a big difference in how buyers feel when they walk through.
Preparation & Staging
Handle needed repairs, choose neutral paint colors, keep inside and outside tidy. I provide home staging when needed to help buyers envision themselves living there.
Pre-Inspection Option
A pre-inspection gives buyers confidence in the quality of your home and can reduce surprises that derail deals during escrow.
Event-Style Open Houses
Not just an open door — we create memorable events with refreshments, music, and targeted promotion that draw more attention and increase buyer competition.
What's Your Home Worth?
There are a lot of AI home valuation tools out there that spit out an instant number. I do it differently.
As a 25-year Kitsap County resident and active Realtor, I personally review every property — your home's condition, your neighborhood, recent sales on your street, and what buyers are actually paying right now.
You'll get a detailed, personalized valuation from me within 24 hours. Not a bot. Not an algorithm. A real local expert who knows your market.
Seller FAQs
How long does it take to sell a home in Kitsap County?
It depends on the market, the price point, and the condition of your home. In a balanced Kitsap market, well-priced homes typically go under contract within 14–30 days. Homes with strong marketing and competitive pricing often receive offers within the first week. During our strategy session, I'll give you a realistic timeline based on current conditions in your specific area.
How do you determine the right listing price?
I look at recent comparable sales in your neighborhood, current active listings you'll be competing against, buyer demand, seasonal trends, and your home's specific condition and features. I combine this data with 25+ years of walking through homes in Kitsap — that local context is something no algorithm can replicate.
What makes your marketing different from other agents?
Most agents take a few photos and post to the MLS. I create a full marketing campaign: professional video tours, high-quality photography, a dedicated property website, targeted social media ads, Google advertising to reach relocating buyers, print materials, and analytics tracking to see who's engaging with your listing. Your home gets treated like a brand launch, not just a listing.
Should I do repairs before listing?
It depends on the repair. Small fixes that improve first impressions — fresh paint, clean landscaping, fixing leaky faucets — almost always pay for themselves. Major renovations are less clear-cut. I can help you prioritize which improvements will give you the best return and which ones buyers won't pay extra for. A pre-inspection can also reveal issues worth addressing before listing.
What are the costs of selling a home?
The main costs include real estate commissions, excise tax (Washington state and county), title insurance, escrow fees, and any agreed-upon repairs or concessions. I'll walk you through a detailed net sheet during our consultation so you know exactly what to expect — no surprises at closing.
Do I need to be moved out before we list?
No — most sellers live in their home during the listing period. We'll work together on making the home show-ready while you're still there. If the home is vacant, I can provide staging to help buyers visualize the space. Either way works, and we'll plan around your situation.
