Inspections and Repairs
Get your property ready to sell with the required inspections, repairs, and disclosures. This part of the process can be critical in maximizing value and making your property attractive to buyers.
As experienced real estate agents in the DMV, we are well-versed in the inspection process, so our partnership will ensure you do not miss any critical repairs and nothing is overlooked.
We’ll walk you through preparation suggestions, including plumbing, electric, roofing, HVAC, painting, curb appeal and landscaping, and general cleaning. All the documents will be organized, labeled, and easy to access for any potential buyer questions.
Our job is to become familiar with your property to streamline the conversations and make closing happen faster. You can trust our evaluation of your property.
Staging and Advertising
Now is the time you’ve worked so hard for, and we’re here to highlight the opportunity. Staging your property is all about attracting the right buyer for the place.
For home sales, we’ll help recommend what to stow away, what can bring the place to life, and what scents will make viewers at ease. We help stage both vacant and lived-in homes, so no chance is missed. We’ll discuss the pros and cons of an open house and the overall viewing process in general.
For commercial properties, we’ll help outline the key features to show buyers and suggest commercial-appropriate staging set-ups. We help showcase the potential of your property without going too niche or over the top.
Time to Advertise
Marketing is our specialty when it comes to selling property. Buyers will view a property online before they come onsite, so it’s important to capture the magic without missing a single detail.
Let our experienced real estate agents handle the lingo, description, photo ops, and more. Tell us what you love about your property and all the gems that make it a perfect investment, and we won’t hesitate to display them proudly. Your info, our expertise, one incredible value.
We Have the Vendors You Need!
One realty company, everything you need. We work with trusted photographers who know how to highlight a property.
Whether it’s an upscale modern house, a farm in the country, or a prime commercial location, we can refer you to everyone you need.
Negotiations and Closing
Throughout the process of listing your property, our realtors become intimately familiar with the details of your property. We handle negotiations when you have an interested buyer and an offer on the table. We will work with lenders to ensure the buyer is vetted and will ensure you’re getting the best possible sale for all involved.
Let us handle the contract, as we break down the timeline of the final sale, all appraisals and inspections, and any details. Questions? Just ask. Our role is to help streamline your sale while protecting the value of your property. We manage all documents and keep everything on hand, ready for reference at a moment’s notice.
Seller’s Tip: The highest price isn’t always the best price. The best part of working with an experienced realty company is our ability to vet offers on your property.
We consider the timeline of closing, the buyer’s vetting process, and other negotiations in the contract. Don’t just look at dollar signs, look at value.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the major costs with selling my property?
The biggest costs of selling property typically include agent commissions, closing costs, and any repairs or prep work needed to get your property market-ready. During your consult call, we’ll provide a rough estimate of what to expect for your property.
What information am I required to disclose about my property when selling?
You’re required to disclose any known material issues like structural problems, water damage, or past repairs. Full transparency helps protect you legally and builds trust with buyers. We’ll guide you through your state’s disclosure requirements.
Does the buyer or seller choose the closing agent?
It depends on local custom, but either party can request a preferred closing agent. If you have a preference, we’ll help communicate that during negotiations.
What contingencies may be included in a purchase contract?
Common contingencies for residential properties include home inspection, appraisal, financing, and sale of the buyer’s current home. These protect the buyer but can also affect your timeline. We’ll help you evaluate each offer carefully.
Should I sell my current home before buying my next home?
Selling first gives you a clearer budget and avoids carrying two mortgages, while buying first offers convenience if you can qualify. The right choice depends on your finances and market conditions. We’ll consult with you to help make a smart, strategic decision.
What services does Miller Realty provide when selling a property?
We help with the entire selling process, from initial consult, listing, property preparations, and negotiations down to signing the final closing document. We can refer you to other vendors in the area who can assist as well.
How do you determine the best time to sell my property?
