How do you sell a home in Philadelphia?

The right buyer who loves what your home represents is almost as important as maximizing your price. You want a professional in your corner who guides you through pre-listing, stays diligent when multiple offers come in, manages the under-contract process, and communicates clearly with buyers’ agents and lenders. That is how we run every listing.

Pricing is the most important decision you will make. We study recent sales and current competition on your block and in your building, adjust for condition, updates and outdoor space, and recommend a price that draws strong interest from day one. Request a home valuation to get started.

Small repairs, a deep clean, decluttering and fresh paint often pay for themselves. We walk through your home with you and prioritize the updates that matter most to buyers in your neighborhood. Ask us about Compass Concierge, which can front the cost of eligible pre-listing improvements.

Professional photography, video and a strong launch get your home in front of the right buyers quickly, through the MLS, Compass’s network and our own reach in the neighborhoods we work in. We coordinate showings around your schedule and share feedback after every one.

When offers come in, we compare more than price: financing strength, deposit, contingencies and settlement timing all affect how likely a deal is to close. When there are multiple offers, we manage the process so you get the best overall terms.

After you accept an offer, we manage inspections, appraisal and the buyer’s financing timeline, and keep every party on schedule through settlement. In Philadelphia, the combined city and state realty transfer tax is customarily split between buyer and seller, and we review your estimated net proceeds with you before you sign.
