The process starts with Stanley Montfort giving your property the once over to determine the best possible listing price. This involves:

• A close look at what similar homes have sold for in your area recently

• A check on how many homes are on the market and what buyers are looking for

• A look at the condition of your property and some thoughts on how you can make it shine

• A chat about your timeline, goals and what you need to get out of selling your property, including reviewing your home value in NYC before setting a final listing strategy

Stanley does a thorough market analysis to get a feel for current market conditions and comes up with a pricing strategy thatll ensure your property attracts the right buyers from the get-go, minimising the risk of getting lowball offers from investors.

Client Success Stories

We tried a few different realtors before we met Stan and none of them really knew the townhouse market like he did. He brought in more potential buyers than all the other agents combined and got the sale sorted. Stan is a total pro and a real leader in his field - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
– Barry G, Brownstone owner

Stanley sold my townhouse in a tough market, he was a total pro from start to finish - extremely professional and very hard working. He kept me in the loop on everything and gave me plenty of notice for viewings. I'm glad we went with him
– Joseph W, Townhouse owner

Stanley is just the best, he made sure my listing got a lot of foot traffic and that the viewings were of high quality. We had a few bumps in the road but he just kept on going - in the end we got the sale and I would definitely use him again

Frequently Asked Questions

How much commission do listing agents charge?

Typically, listing agent commission can range up to 6% of the sale price, which is usually split between the listing agent and the buyers agent. Commission is negotiable and reflects the range of services provided - from professional marketing to expert negotiation and transaction management. Stanley is upfront about costs and the value you get at every price point.

How long does it take to sell a home?

The time it takes for a house to sell can vary wildly depending on market conditions, what kind of property its a and how you've priced it. Generally homes that are staged to sell do better than those that aren't - we see condos in top shape going under contract in a little under a month and closing up to 2 months later, while brownstones the take longer to sell - you're looking at 30-60 days to accept an offer and then another 45-60 days to actually close. And then there are the properties that just aren't priced right - those tend to hang around a lot longer. Stanley Montfort is going to be able to give you a pretty good idea of what you should expect in your neighborhood - he stays on top of the local data, so he can give you some solid numbers.

Do you actually offer staging services?

Actually yes we do - but we do it a bit differently than most real estate agents. While Stanley Montfort wont be staging your house himself, he has some personal recommendations for people and companies that he's worked with before that can help get your place looking it's absolute best. We also connect you with a trusted list of pre-screened vendors who can make sure your home looks as attractive to potential buyers as possible. In the end, that's going to help you sell your house for more money - and staging can actually yield an extra 5-15% on top of your asking price - it's a pretty solid investment if you ask me.
