I frequently have family members call me with condo listings after the death of a dear family member.  There is a need for expertise and sensitivity in matters such dsc01693.JPGas these.  After the death of a loved one there are financial burdens and issues that need to be addressed with speed and proficiency but with an awareness of how emotionally charged the situation can be.

In most cases the condo will need to be prepped and staged to sell quickly.  This requires an experienced eye, some one who knows what the current market is and has their finger on the pulse of the current prospective buyers.  I always encourage the loved ones to go into the residence and remove the most treasured pieces of memorabilia before I stage it.  In doing so it helps the loved ones to accept the inevitable changes that will happen to the home while still demonstrating respect for their loss.

I also work hand in hand with their trust attorney to make sure that if there are any special disclosures necessary we take care of them. Loved ones generally want to sell as quickly as possible but it doesn't mean that it is easy for them. Pricing the property is critical.

Experience has taught me that the best way to help them is to do my job effectively and inexpensively.
