When it was time for these sellers to move on from 4820 Savannah Dr NW, they already knew who to call. Dustin Kanz had helped them buy the home years earlier. Now they needed him to sell it and get them into their next home, on a timeline that worked for both moves.

The ChallengeA crowded market

Twelve comparable homes were already active in northwest Rochester, almost all priced between $369,000 and $388,000. Buyers had plenty of choices, so this home had to stand out immediately.

The StrategyPrice it right, then make it impossible to miss

We listed the 4-bedroom, 2-bath, 2,156 sq ft home at $377,900, right in line with two nearby sales at $382,000 and $383,000. Buyers' agents agreed with that price: every one who commented on it called it “just right.”

On Wednesday, June 3, we launched a Coming Soon campaign built around what set this home apart: quartz counters, a brand-new deck, a new HVAC system, and a fully fenced yard. That one Facebook post reached 11,643 people. Across Homes.com, Realtor.com, Zillow, Redfin, and our own site, the listing drew more than 7,100 views, for a total reach of 18,755.

The ResultOffers in four days, sold above list, closed in 30

Showings started Friday, June 5. Over one weekend we hosted 13 private showings and a Saturday open house. Buyers' agents gave the home top marks, with several 5-out-of-5 ratings and comments like “house is in great shape, showed very well” and “very well kept home.”

By Sunday, June 7, just four days after the first announcement, buyers were writing an offer. The home sold above its $377,900 list price and closed 30 days from list to close, so the sellers moved straight into their next home with no reductions and no long wait.

Why It WorkedPresentation and timing

We didn't try to beat the competition on price. We beat it on presentation and timing: the right price on day one, demand built before the first showing, and every showing packed into one weekend. For clients who trusted us with their purchase, that meant a clean, fast sale that set up their next move.
