Selling a Home in Apache Junction
Priced from what actually closed near you, photographed properly, and marketed where buyers are already looking.
Buyers meet your house on a phone first
Almost nobody drives past a house anymore and decides to buy it. They see it on a screen, and what they see there decides whether they ever stand in the driveway. That is why the media is not an afterthought on my listings.
Professional photography, twilight exteriors where the house earns them
A floor plan buyers can actually trust
Walkthrough video for the out-of-state buyer
Paid social and search aimed at this price band in this corridor
AI-assisted targeting, so the spend follows the people who are actually looking
Eight steps, start to wire
Price from three closed sales
Within half a mile, inside sixty days. Never from a portal estimate, which does not know what your house looks like inside. I adjust each comparable for condition, lot, pool and upgrades, check what is active and pending against you, then show you the numbers so you can see exactly where the list price came from.
Prepare the rooms that sell
Counters to three objects, a third of the furniture out, every bulb matched. Fix what an inspector will flag anyway, service the air conditioning, and fill out your Seller’s Property Disclosure Statement honestly now, not after an offer lands. It is unglamorous work, it costs less than a price cut, and it moves the number.
Photograph it properly
A professional shoot booked for the right light, with the house staged the day before. Photos, floor plan and walkthrough video are all finished before the listing goes live, because the first week on the market draws more attention than any week after it, and a listing never gets a second first impression.
Launch where buyers already are
The listing goes to the MLS and syndicates out to the major home search sites, then paid social and search target the people shopping this price band in this corridor. Out-of-state buyers get the video and floor plan, so distance is no reason to pass, and every inquiry gets a same-day response.
Run showings on a schedule
Grouped, confirmed and followed up, so momentum builds instead of leaking away over three quiet weeks. You hear feedback from every showing agent, and if the same objection comes back twice, we deal with it before the third buyer walks through the door, whether that means a repair, a price adjustment or better photos.
Read every offer past its price
Financing type, contingencies, timeline and appraisal gap decide more than the headline number. A cash offer, a VA offer and a conventional offer at the same price are not the same deal, and a buyer who needs to sell first is a risk to your date. I lay every offer side by side before you counter or sign.
Negotiate the repairs that matter
The buyer’s repair requests arrive in writing on a BINSR, and your window to respond is short. Concede the cosmetic, hold the structural, and offer a credit where a repair would slow things down or invite a second round of requests. The goal is simple: keep the buyer, keep the price, and keep the closing date.
Close and get paid
Payoff, prorations and the wire, walked through before you sit at the table. You usually sign a few days before closing, and once the deed records with the county, escrow releases your proceeds. Leave the keys, remotes and manuals, move the utilities on the right day, keep your closing statement for tax time, and you are done.
What you would walk away with
Runs entirely in your browser, nothing is sent anywhere. Bring the payoff figure from your last mortgage statement and we can be precise on a phone call.

Travis is on top of all details for closing a real estate transaction. Travis did all the leg work for my real estate sales due to me being out of state.

Travis is awesome! He listed and sold my property that is way out in Maricopa and it was a hard sale. He definitely knows what he is doing.

Selling, in Plain Language
The questions sellers ask before they sign a listing agreement. Click any question to open it.
A listing agreement names me as your agent, sets the term, the list price and my fee, and spells out how either of us can end it. I walk you through every line before you sign.
My fee is written into that agreement before we tour anything. Sometimes the seller covers it, sometimes you do, and we settle which before you see a house.
Yes. The term and the cancellation are both in writing, and I will read you both lines before you sign either.
For a private showing, yes, that is the rule now. For an open house, no.
It changes what you can borrow and what you pay at closing. VA financing has no down payment and no monthly mortgage insurance, and there are sellers who do not understand it. Part of my job is making sure that never costs you the house.
With financing, not with listings. Talk to a lender first so we know the real number, then we look. Touring houses you cannot write on is how people get discouraged.
