One of the biggest challenges for home sellers is the classic Real Estate Catch 22 – Having a House to Sell Before They Buy Their Next Home, what are some things a home seller can do to make it easier on themselves?

1. The Real Estate Dilemma is TWO FOLD:
Need their net proceeds from the sale to buy and
Fear that if we sell their home too fast they will be rendered in a temporary housing situation
Neither one are great

2. Needing the Net Proceeds?
➢ Option 1: Sell the Home!
Or at least get it Under Contract – Home Sellers of homes they want to buy are much more likely to accept a Contingent Home Sale when their home already has a buyer…

➢ Option 2: What if the You have NOT lined up a Destination?
We can put contract protections in place to give the Seller an “OUT” for at least 10 days while we shop. I’ve seen some home sellers rent a home waiting for their to be built
That is actually a bit less stressful than trying to time the market

➢ Option 3: To make an offer on a home Contingent on Your Home Seller – Most risky
Puts a ton of pressure on you

➢ Option 4: Do Not HAVE to sell to perform:
Buy your next home first
Move at your pace
Then sell the home
Least stressful
But not always possible…

Call us about our Home Sale Guarantee: We can make an offer on their home so they can buy their next home NON-Contingent on the Sale. The goal is to get the home sold for TOP Dollar, our system provides them with a FALL BACK plan. Not every home seller qualifies for our Guaranteed Sale but you can call us to ask us about it.

After trying previously to sell with no result, hiring Barb was a refreshing experience. She sold our home for $57,000 over asking price in just one week and it was a very easy sale. Her and her team handled everything so we just needed to move. We highly recommend using Barb to sell a home.

Barb’s great marketing strategy helped us sell our Cherry Creek Crossing home for $60,000 over asking price and we set a new high sales price in the neighborhood. Barb and her team helped us negotiate to stay in the home after closing until our new place was ready to move right in. There is no question that using Barb was the right choice for us to make this move" Bill & Sharon

We heard about Barb Schlinker from her Radio Show and having been in the sales business we were very impressed. Barb and her team did a great job managing all the many showings and ultimately a great sale. The result could not have been better. We became friends with the buyer and the whole process exceeded our expectations. Barb's team was able to quickly respond to showing feedback to help get us the over full priced sale. From the recommendation to her trusted vendors that went well to the consistent and frequent communication from Barb and her team - it was a pleasure to do business with her. Steve & Crystal

After another broker missed the entire selling season by moving too slow, we hired Barb and she quickly helped us get the home on the market and looking great! It sold for over asking price in just 10 days. Barb and her team took care of all the details and the closing were very smooth and easy.

Barb Schlinker and Tom Parker were great to work with to get my home sold. They did an excellent job on photos and marketing. I had previously tried with another agent that resulted in no sale. But when I hired Barb and Tom everything went as planned. When it turned out I needed a new roof, they suggested a roofing company that was able to finish the job quickly and minimize my out-of-pocket expenses. I was able to sell my home for top dollar and they helped me prepare for my move. I highly recommend Barb Schlinker and her team to sell your home. Fritz

Barb Schlinker and her great team were very helpful in getting us ready to go on the market and she has amazing marketing that attracts the buyers. She got a huge crowd of buyers to view our home and we were able to select the best buyer for our home. She not only sold our home for $50,000 over asking price the first weekend but she was able to negotiate for us to stay in the home for weeks after closing to accommodate a smooth moving process. We are so thankful we hired Barb Schlinker and her team at Your Home Sold Guaranteed Realty.

It was time for us to downsize and we needed someone who could help us get the most amount of money for our townhome. Barb helped us decide what to do and what not to do get our townhome ready for sale. Our townhome sold for full price, setting a new high sales price in the community.

Barb and her team worked hard throughout the entire process in selling our home. Barb always took the time to answer any questions we had. We sold our home for $65,000 over asking price. We would highly recommend Barb if you are thinking about selling your home. Ed and Michelle Thompson

Edward Thompson

This was certainly my most pleasant real estate experience. Honestly Barb and her team are exceptional. Any question or concern was taken care of and she sold for 12% over asking price. I wish Barb worked where I’m moving so that I could hire her again. This is coming from someone who has purchased several homes. By far she is the best that I have worked with.

It was so nice to only have to show our home for just 1 hour and Barb and her team helped us sell our home for $55,000 over asking price with a cash buyer. Everything went as scheduled and it made the process easy." Bill & Judy

Willam Bremer

We talked to several agents but it was clear Barb has the best marketing to get us the most money. Best of all....she sold our home for at $30,000 over what the other agents said it was worth. We moved out and left the home in her hands. Barb and her team were amazing and we did not have to worry about anything. While we were enjoying family in another state, Barb's team sold our home and it closed in just 3 weeks! We highly recommend Barb and her team!

Dennis and Angie Snyder

After hearing Barb on the radio where she outlined her methods for selling homes, I am so pleased that we hired her to handle the sale of our home. We had already moved out, and she and her team installed very attractive staging furniture so it showed beautifully. In just one short week. Barb obtained several buyers competing for our home and she sold our home for $5000 over asking price. Her team handled everything from there and made the process very easy. Having Barb handle the sale of our home gave me great peace-of-mind throughout the entire process.

It was time for us to downsize our remodeled home. We interviewed several agents. but we knew Barb’s buyers and great marketing would get us the highest price for our home. In a few short weeks Barb was able to sell our home for top dollar, setting a new high sales price in the neighborhood. We are so glad we hired Barb and her team.

Barb and her team made selling our Strawberry Fields condo an easy and enjoyable experience. Our home sold quickly for $18,500 more than our asking price. Barb runs an impressively well managed company. I mean it. You don't see such excellence very often, regardless of the type or size of business. Communication, marketing, timeliness - all met high standards. If you are considering selling your home, call the Barb Schlinker team. Experience for yourself the professionalism that comes from integrity and character. - Doug & Linda

Barb and her team are exceptional to work with!

Tammy Becker

As a busy professional living in Denver, I had very little time to deal with selling my rental townhome. Barb and her team took care of everything, met the former tenant to turn over the property, took care of repairs, installed attractive staging furniture, took great photos and the results were excellent! She sold my townhome in a very short time at a full asking price. I closed remotely without even visiting the property. I highly recommend Barb Schlinker.

324 E Fountain Bl – Benjamin Butler

We were facing a short-notice PCS transfer to another state with the Army. After seeing Barb's videos on YouTube about selling a home we know Barb was the only choice for us. Barb's marketing was able to get us multiple offers over asking price the first weekend. All went as planned we were able to buy our new home just days after Barb sold our home.

Jennifer Stuart

Selling our home with Barb could not have been better. It sold in a few days for more than the asking price. And just as important, we appreciated the excellent communication with Barb and her team. They did everything they promised and more, supporting us through every phase of the sale. Photos, staging, marketing, etc. were all handled efficiently. Emails came regularly with helpful information, reminders and suggestions. When we called or texted with a question, Barb or someone from her office got back to us quickly with the needed answers. Her years in real estate have allowed her to develop a highly professional, smooth running, client-focused business model. Thanks, Barb! You exceeded our expectations!

Janet Savage

Barb and her team were very easy to work with. They did an awesome job! We were under the gun for getting our house sold quickly, and Barb did just that. We got an offer after just one open house! Thanks again, Barb, for all your hard work and assistance. You and your team are amazing!

Lance Hartman

Barb has such great reviews online, I knew she was the right choice for me. She was so helpful and patient helping us get ready on our pace, helping plan our move and best of all she quickly sold the home for $50,000 over asking price in just a few days. Her team took care of all the final details for me, including re-purposing things I did not need so I could easily move to my next home.

Deborah Christian

Barb was able to help us reduce our property tax valuation by over $221,000! What a savings on property taxes and insurance premiums! She uses a formula that accurately assesses the value of one's home. She was very prompt and very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend her for all real estate needs.

Edie Darrah

Barb was great to work with; she returned calls and responded to texts and emails promptly, took care of a broken door lock, and kept on eye on our property after we had moved out of state. She also provided an inflatable mattress when she found out my husband was sleeping on the floor. We would recommend Barb to anyone wanting to sell their property.
