For our home sellers, we have a 21-point Marketing Plan that begins with recommending home and pest inspections, and culminates with weekly contact to give you an update on the marketing of your home.

With an offer date set, once offers are in, we will negotiate on your behalf to get you the highest price possible in the shortest amount of time. We won’t always seek a win-win scenario. At Grant Real Estate Group you are our first priority and we negotiate to get you the highest sales price, with the best terms, in the shortest time possible. We want you to win.

Alongside Kristine Blunt, Alexis Williams and the team at Old Republic Title (ORT), we take our fiduciary responsibility seriously. We protect your interests by getting all disclosures signed and assuring any and all contingencies are cleared, in a timely manner. ORT will convey a clean title to buyers, assure all documents are signed timely, properly, and responsibly manage all funds, and funds transfers.
Closing
Once all contingencies are cleared, closing documents are signed, and funding and recording take place, your funds are wired to you; typically 48-72 hours from document signing.
