The listing playbook
From our first call to closing day, here is what actually happens.
Selling a home is a five-stage project, not a single event. We map the deliverables, owners, and decision deadlines before we ever put a sign in the yard — so nothing is a surprise on day 30.
-
01
The discovery call & $650 home readiness audit
We walk the property room by room, photograph the high-impact fixes, and deliver a written 14-page audit covering pricing comps, photo-readiness, repair triage, and staging notes. Delivered within 5 business days. Zero obligation.
-
02
Pricing strategy & net-projection sheet
Our in-house data analyst runs hyperlocal price-per-square-foot reports for your specific 27-neighborhood micro-area. You leave the strategy session with a recommended list price band and an honest net-projection sheet (after commissions, staging, and seller concessions typical in 60169/60192/60194).
-
03
Pre-market prep, photography & launch
Coordinate painters, stagers, and our documentary-style listing photographer (4:3 exteriors, twilight sets for premier homes). Listings go live on MLS with syndication to Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, and the top 22 northwest-suburb brokerage IDX feeds. A Coming Soon pre-launch teaser runs for 7 days where eligible.
-
04
Showings, negotiation & due diligence
Our in-house negotiation desk handles every offer, counter, and inspection response. You receive a same-day summary of every showing and a written recommendation on every offer within 4 hours of receipt. We pre-qualify buyers' lenders before scheduling showings so offers that arrive are financeable.
Chapter 05 · Closing day & beyond
Our licensed transaction manager coordinates the title company, buyer's lender, and final walkthrough. You receive a closing-day timeline 72 hours in advance and a post-close possession checklist. Most Hoffman Estates listings close 30–40 days after acceptance.

The 60-Day Guaranteed Sale Program
If your home doesn't sell in 60 days at the agreed list price, we buy it.
This is not a slogan. It is a written program with named terms, qualifying bands, and a cash-offer fallback partner that closes on the original closing date. We use it because Hoffman Estates inventory moves quickly when priced correctly — and when it doesn't, our sellers are protected.
What happens if it doesn't sell
At day 60, we transition to a cash-offer partner and close on a date you set. You avoid the carrying cost of an extra 30–90 days of mortgage, taxes, and utilities — often $4,000–$8,000 on a typical Hoffman Estates home.
Why it works here
The 60169/60192/60194 market clears an average of 11 days when priced to the median. The guarantee is built for the small share of properties that need a longer runway, so it never weakens the launch strategy.
A $650 audit, included free with every listing consultation.
The pre-listing home readiness audit: a real deliverable, not a pitch.
Before you sign a listing agreement, we walk your home top to bottom and deliver a written 14-page audit. Sellers consistently tell us the audit alone is worth the conversation — it is the same framework our full listings use, surfaced up front so you can decide with eyes open.
-
Pricing comp walk
Twelve months of comparable sales for your specific micro-area, with price-per-square-foot trends, DOM bands, and the recommended list price band.
-
Photo-readiness scorecard
A room-by-room checklist of what our listing photographer will need — paint touch-ups, lighting, decluttering guidance, and exterior curb items.
-
Repair triage
A prioritized list of repairs, separated into "fix before listing," "offer as-is," and "ignore" — with realistic cost ranges from Hoffman Estates contractors.
-
Staging & presentation notes
Specific staging moves for your floor plan, including which rooms to photograph first and which to de-emphasize. Includes a recommended net staging budget.
What Hoffman Estates sellers say
Two closings we are still proud of.
"Listed on a Tuesday, six offers by Sunday, closed above asking on a 9-day market run. The audit told us exactly which repairs to skip and which paint job actually mattered. We had no idea a listing process could feel this organized."
"Our first offer came in $18,000 under list and we almost took it. The negotiation desk walked us through three counters we didn't know were possible, and we closed at list with a 21-day inspection period. They negotiated things our last agent never mentioned."
