My husband and I decided to sell our house after living in it for 30 years...this was such an easy process because right away the realtor that was recommended was up to date on market values and made us feel comfortable about the whole process I would highly recommend HomeLight to anyone that's not sure where to start.

I am so glad I called Homelight to find a real estate agent. I was trying to sell my home as is and needed to find an agent with experience selling homes as is...sold my home in 4 days and over asking price. I couldn't be happier.

HomeLight took the guesswork out of choosing an agent and paired us with two local Realtors who had the knowledge and expertise to guide us through our home buying experience. Their process was quick, their people were professional and friendly, and the experience we had with the agents they recommended was superb.

When is the right time to hire a real estate agent in Petersburg?
It's going to depend on the temperature of the Petersburg housing market but we generally recommend that you hire a real estate agent as soon as you're thinking of selling your home. Generally speaking, that's anywhere from 3 to 6 months prior to your desired move date.
How important is it to hire a top real estate agent in Petersburg?
On average, the top performing 5% of seller's agents generally command a higher selling price (+9%) than the average real estate agent. The top performing 5% of buyer's agents generally save their clients 2.5% more than the average real estate agent at closing. So, whether you're buying or selling your house, your odds of making more money on the transaction are higher if you work with a top performing agent. We encourage you to explore all of your options if you're selling a house in Petersburg, VA.

Always ensure you’re working with a trained, accredited real estate professional. That's the best way to protect you and your property. Every listing agent should be prepared to deliver proof of their license to sell in your area.
