A certified home can increase buyer interest and sell at a higher price.

Are you planning to sell your home in 2025? The current market presents some challenges for sellers. More properties are sitting on the market longer, and even though home prices have increased by 4.5% year over year, selling your home is becoming tougher. With mortgage rates hovering around the 7% mark, buyers are becoming more selective. So, how can you make sure your home sells quickly and for the price you want? The Certified Pre-owned Home Program may just be the answer.

How the program works. The Certified Pre-owned Home Program is ccJust like a certified pre-owned car, this program guarantees that your home has been thoroughly inspected and is ready for sale. By addressing potential issues upfront, it gives buyers the confidence they need to move forward with an offer.

Benefits of the program. By using our program, you are setting yourself up for success in the following ways:

1. Higher selling price. Homes certified through this program often sell for more money.

2. Faster sales. Your home will stay on the market for fewer days than the average listing.
3. Increased buyer interest. Providing certainty around the condition of your home leads to greater interest from buyers.

Real success stories. Let me share a few success stories that demonstrate the effectiveness of this program. Towards the end of 2024, three properties sat on the market for an extended period with different agents and companies, with no offers in sight. After reaching out to them, we certified their homes.

As a result, each property sold for the asking price and in a fraction of the time they had previously been listed. The success we saw in 2024 shows that this program works, and it will continue to deliver great results in 2025.
