For Sellers
Price it right.
Market it sharp.
Close it calm.
Whether you're downsizing after 25 years, settling an estate, or moving closer to family — Paulette manages your listing like a project, not a guess.
The 9-part seller plan
Everything that happens
between your call and your closing.
01
Pre-listing walkthrough
I walk your home with a sharp eye — what to keep, what to remove, what's worth a small repair, what isn't. You get a written punch list, not a vague suggestion.
02
Independent CMA
I model three pricing bands (list strong, list right, list aspirational) using closed comps from the last 90 days, active competition, and pending data. You see the actual spreadsheet.
03
Photography & 3D tour
Professional twilight or daytime photography, drone shots when the lot deserves it, and a Matterport 3D walkthrough for out-of-state buyers.
04
Staging consult
A licensed stager spends 90 minutes with you — usually low-cost rearrangement, occasionally bringing in pieces. Most of my sellers spend under $400 and recover 5–10× at closing.
05
MLS + syndication
Listed on ARMLS, then syndicated to Zillow, Realtor.com, Homes.com, and HomeSmart's national network — with a tight headline, accurate room counts, and the photos in the right order.
06
Targeted promotion
Email blasts to my network of West Valley buyer agents, social posts targeted to Midwest snowbird search behavior, and direct outreach to the community Posse for word-of-mouth.
07
Showings managed
I screen every showing request, confirm with you 24 hours in advance, and collect post-showing feedback in writing. You see the patterns, not the noise.
08
Offer review & negotiation
I present every offer side-by-side with terms decoded — not just price. I negotiate calmly and represent only your interests.
09
Inspection & closing
I manage the buyer's inspection responses, escrow timeline, title work, HOA disclosures, and final walkthrough. You sign at the title company; I'm there with you.
Pricing Methodology
The CMA
you'll actually understand.
I don't price homes from a Zillow estimate. I build a written CMA using closed comps from the last 90 days within your specific community, then adjust for square footage, lot orientation, view, updates, and condition.
You see three pricing bands — list strong, list right, list aspirational — with the predicted buyer behavior, days-on-market range, and likely sale price for each. The decision is yours.

Seller FAQ
What sellers
want to know.
How do you price my home?
I build a written comparative market analysis (CMA) using closed sales from the last 90 days within your specific community, then adjust for square footage, lot, view, updates, and condition. I show you three pricing bands and explain the buyer behavior I expect at each one. The decision is yours.
What's the typical time on market for a well-priced West Valley home?
In 2026 conditions, well-priced and well-presented homes in Sun City West, Sun City Grand, Festival, and Traditions are going under contract in 12–28 days. Overpriced homes commonly sit 60+ days and end up selling for less than they would have at the right list price.
Do I need to update before listing?
Usually not as much as you think. A deep clean, decluttering, fresh neutral paint in the worst rooms, and updated lighting often outperform a $25,000 kitchen refresh. I walk through your house and tell you exactly where the dollars are worth spending.
Will you take a discount listing fee?
I don't compete on commission — I compete on net proceeds. Sellers who hire me typically clear more after fees than they would with a discount brokerage, because of pricing accuracy and negotiation. I'm happy to walk you through real examples.
I'm downsizing. Can you help me sell and buy simultaneously?
Yes — this is one of the most common scenarios I handle. We plan the sequence carefully: most clients sell first (with a 30–60 day rent-back to the buyer if needed), bank the proceeds, and then buy without contingency. I coordinate both transactions.
