*The only other review here is something I would avoid because
1. He never really used her and he's only written one review.
But here's my review:
I had a few goals.
1. Sell the house
- while not spending much to fix it up
- sell for the most I can.
- not be stuck doing a lot of meetings and paper work - we're busy enough moving

Amber ran the numbers in my neighborhood, and gave me a ball park of what she thought my house would go for. Honestly, she was cool with my decisions and gave coaching/feedback if she thought I could use some help. We priced a little higher than what she thought it would sell for so that people could bargain down a little - everyone needs to feel like they got a deal. Amber got me information where I knew at what posted selling price what I would end up with after all fees were paid.
Joey - Amber's marketing arm helped take me through my house telling me what I needed to do to make it have more appeal. Now, I did most of the stuff, but I didn't do everything and I didn't feel pressured to do everything. I had the option of cleaning the place myself or getting recommended contractors to help. Joey arranged for a photographer that also took aerial shots.
Lionel - the closing coordinator was accessible via text, email, and phone all day every day.
Our house went on the market late on a Thursday and we had 3 offers by Monday. *Now this is where Amber's expertise really kicked in. When you got a cash offer, a offer with a contingency and more, you got a lot to weigh. Taxes, fees, contingency, appraisers, requests for repairs, etc. Later on, we got another higher cash offer. Later on the buyer's appraisal team ran into some issues getting their appraiser out. We were afraid we were going to lose the buyer. Instead, we were able to let them move in and set up a lease for them to pay us per day until the all the paperwork got done.
Did I mentioned that I needed the house to get sold quickly because we had a baby on the way? Did I mention that all the documents to be signed were done online? Via emails and DocuSign - I did some on my iPhone. Did I mention that there were other similar models of my house on sale in the neighborhood and mine was the oldest? Times have changed in the real estate market, and Amber is on top of things. I had links that showed me how many people had viewed my house virtually each day. I got an email alert every time someone walked into the house and when they left. It's not just putting an ad in the newspaper and a sign on your front lawn.
Once I was done cleaning the house, I was done with the place. I didn't want to step into my old house again. I just wanted it sold.
