    Ep. 71 - Who do you hire when selling your home? (And why it might not be your Buyer's Agent)

    Think the agent who helped you buy your home is automatically the best choice to help you sell it? Not necessarily. In this episode of the Brandy Lydon Podcast, we deep dive into how to hire a listing agent and why their role is vastly different from a buyer's agent.If you want to sell your home for top dollar, the number one factor is real estate marketing. Learn why a strong online presence and social media reach are vital to "stop the scroll" on apps like Zillow. Brandy explains how to evaluate an agent's capability to spend time, energy, and money on prepping your house for the market.Key topics covered in this episode:- The Listing Consultation: Why you need more than just a walkthrough and paperwork.- Pricing Strategy: How to use active, pending, and sold data for competitive home pricing.- The Power of Staging: Tips for decluttering and depersonalizing to help buyers envision their own lives in your space.- Vendor Connections: Why a realtor’s network of junk removal, cleaners, and repair pros (like window and seal specialists) can save you thousands during the pre-listing process.- Handling Inspections: How a well-connected agent manages repairs and vendors, especially for out-of-state sellers.Brandy also shares a real-life success story of a 95-year-old seller whose home went from "original condition" to a fully booked showing schedule in less than two weeks thanks to the right connections.Ready to list?
