FAQ for East Texas Sellers

  • How do I know what my East Texas home is worth?

    Your home value depends on recent sales, market trends, condition, location, and current buyer demand in your part of East Texas. I run a full Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) plus a pricing strategy tailored to your goals.

  • How long will it take to sell my home?

    Every market is different, but in East Texas, properly priced and well-marketed homes usually move faster than many sellers expect. I use data from recently sold properties (not active ones) to determine accurate average days on market, then I build a strategy to beat it.

  • What should I fix or update before listing?

    Not as much as you think! I walk you through what matters most to buyers in White Oak, Longview, and surrounding areas. Often, small improvements (like lighting, touch-up paint, and simple curb appeal) make a bigger impact than expensive renovations.

  • What should I do to prepare my home before listing?

    The big three are declutter, deep clean, and handle core repairs. After that, I guide you through staging, curb appeal, and photo-prep so your listing shines online.

  • What’s the best time to sell a house in East Texas?

    Homes move year-round here. Spring and early summer bring the most buyers, but serious buyers shop in every season—especially in White Oak, where inventory moves fast.

  • How does pricing work?

    Pricing is a strategy. I don’t “guess” when it comes to pricing homes. I use data from recent White Oak + East Texas sales, your home’s condition and features, local buyer demand, and your timeline and goals. This helps you avoid leaving money on the table or sitting on the market.

  • What’s included when I list my home with you?

    When you list your home with me, you get a complete marketing system which includes pricing strategy, professional photos, staging guidance, social media marketing, MLS exposure, negotiation expertise, and weekly communication + updates. My goal is to get you top value with as little stress as possible.

    Basically, I don’t just list homes…I sell them!

  • How do I get my home ready for professional photos?

    Nope! Homes can be shown while occupied. But if you can declutter and minimize, your home will photograph and show better.

  • Can you help me sell land or rural property?

    ABSOLUTELY! I specialize in East Texas land, rural homes, and acreage. It’s something I am very passionate about. I personally live in the country, so this is right up my alley. This market is unique, and it requires data-driven pricing, targeted marketing, and the right buyer pool.

  • What if my home didn’t sell the first time?

    I’ll analyze pricing, marketing, condition, showing feedback, and local competition. Most expired listings fail for fixable reasons. A strategic re-list can completely change the outcome.

  • Do I need professional photos or staging?

    Yes, this is a non-negotiable for me as presentation is everything. I include professional photography, strategic staging guidance, and marketing materials in every listing. This helps your home stand out online, attract more buyers, and sell for a higher price.

  • How much will I make from my home sale?

    Your net profit depends on your sales price, remaining mortgage, repairs or prep you choose, closing costs, and market conditions. I can put together a quick estimated net sheet so you know exactly what to expect before you list.

  • Why should I hire you as my listing agent?

    You should hire me because there is no other agent who does what I do for clients. I work differently. I’m results-driven, strategic, early-rising, responsive, and I care deeply about doing things with integrity. I market the way most agents don’t—creatively, aggressively, and consistently.

    My goal is for you to walk away saying:
    “Working with Kristin was worth every penny, and I’ll recommend her to everyone I know.”

  • How do I get my home ready for professional photos?

    I’ll send you a step-by-step checklist so your home looks bright, clean, and move-in ready online.

  • What’s the best time of year to sell in East Texas?

    East Texas has a year-round real estate market. Certain seasons bring more buyers, but with the right pricing and marketing strategy, we can create demand any time of year, even in slower seasons.
