Selling a home in the Twin Cities involves specific local requirements and legal disclosures. Here is what to expect:

We analyze recent sales in your specific neighborhood (from Linden Hills to Woodbury) to determine a competitive "List Price."

If you are selling in Minneapolis, St. Paul, or certain suburbs (like Bloomington or Richfield), you must complete a Truth-in-Sale of Housing (TISH) evaluation before the home hits the market.

From professional staging to minor repairs, we ensure your home makes a great first impression. In MN, we also focus on "Curb Appeal" transitions between our dramatic seasons.

You will complete the Seller’s Property Disclosure Statement. Transparency is key to a smooth closing and protecting you from future liability.

Your home is launched on the MLS and major portals, supported by professional photography and targeted digital ads.

We don't just look at the price; we evaluate the buyer's financing, inspection contingencies, and closing timeline.

Once under contract, the buyer will likely perform their own private inspection. We navigate any repair requests together.

In MN, this typically happens at a title company. You’ll sign the final deed, hand over the keys, and receive your proceeds!

Losing a spouse is an immense emotional burden, and the thought of selling your family home can feel overwhelming. My goal is to handle the logistics so you can focus on your family.

Key Considerations in Minnesota:

If your home was held in Joint Tenancy, the process is often simpler. We will need to file an Affidavit of Survivorship and a certified copy of the Death Certificate with the county (e.g., Hennepin, Ramsey, or Dakota County).
 

If the property was in your spouse's name alone, it may need to go through probate. I work closely with local estate attorneys to ensure the "Letters of General Administration" or "Letters Testamentary" are in place so we can legally list the home.
 

There is no "perfect" time to sell. Whether you need to move quickly or need months to prepare, we move at your pace.

When a loved one can no longer live at home due to illness, or when you are tasked with settling an estate after a passing, the "To-Do" list can be daunting. I specialize in acting as your local boots-on-the-ground.

• Power of Attorney (POA): If your loved one is still living but unable to manage the sale, a Durable Power of Attorney is required. In Minnesota, the POA must specifically grant the authority to sell real estate.

• Senior Living Transitions: I can coordinate with local Twin Cities senior living consultants to align the home sale with your loved one’s move-in date.

• Disclosure Exemptions: In Minnesota, executors or personal representatives who have never lived in the home may be exempt from certain property disclosures, though "Material Facts" must still be shared.

• Clean-out & Preparation: I provide a list of trusted local vendors—from estate sale organizers to junk removal services—to help clear the property without you having to lift a finger.
