Written by Erica McCall | Aug 19 2020

Selling your home during a pandemic is simple when you work with us! From listing consultation to closing, the sale of 5736 4th St N, in Arlington, VA was a fully virtual transaction. Closing at $45,000 over list price, this is an example of how simple it (and profitable) it can be to work with an agent like Khalil El-Ghoul, who offers a fully remote and virtual transaction for sellers at this time!

A Fully Virtual Home Sale: From Listing to Close

Starting with a virtual listing consultation, Khalil was able to walk through the home via video call and identify the key features that bring value to this home. After the walk thought, Khalil talked the seller through his recommendations for repairs, decluttering, painting and cleaning. Understanding the market, improvements such as a new coat of paint and minor repairs can boost the value of your home for potential buyers significantly.

Once improvements are agreed upon, our team then takes care of scheduling out local handymen and cleaners to help with preparing your home for market.

The home hit the market in July 2020, offering a 3D virtual tour walk through on a custom property website built to showcase the photography and key features of the property. Buyers and their agents can then book virtual walk throughs via video or in-person showings, adhering to all PPE safety procedures.

After only 6 days on the market we received multiple offers for this now turn-key single family home. Leveraging all offers and keeping them updating throughout the negotiation processes, we ratified with a buyer for $45,000 over list price!
