Acceptance
We consult with and professionally advise you in accepting the best offer that meets your and your family's needs.
Inspections
We coordinate with the chosen buyer to schedule and complete the home inspections and appropriate tests. (If necessary, we will re-negotiate to address the unfavorable findings of the inspections)
