Maximize Your Equity

Selling Your Home in Vienna

 

Vienna buyers pay a premium for walkability and schools. We position your home to attract high-intent buyers from our 159,000+ client database through luxury staging and cinematic drone tours.

Pricing Strategy

We analyze comparable sales, school pyramid premiums, and walkability scores. Price too high and sit; price too low and leave equity on the table.

Pre-Listing Prep

Minor repairs, decluttering, and staging can add 5–10% to your sale price. We provide a customized prep checklist and vendor referrals.

Cinematic Marketing

Professional photography, drone cinematography, 3D Matterport tours, and targeted campaigns to our private buyer database.

Negotiation Support

We handle multiple offers, inspection negotiations, and repair requests. Our goal: highest price, best terms, smoothest closing.

Upgrade to Your Dream Home

 

Ready for that luxury new build or the estate lot you've always wanted in Vienna? Our "Buy Before You Sell" program lets you move with confidence.

The Challenge

  • Need equity from current home for down payment
  • Contingent offers less competitive in Vienna's market
  • Timing two transactions simultaneously
  • Qualifying for two mortgages temporarily
  • Managing showings while living in home

Our Solutions

  • Bridge loans — Access equity before selling
  • Recast options — Lower payments after sale
  • Contingency strategies — Making your offer competitive
  • Simultaneous closing — Same-day buy and sell
  • Temporary housing — If you sell before you buy

Move-Up Math

Current home value–$850,000
Mortgage balance–$450,000
Selling costs (5%)–$42,500
Equity for next home: $357,500

That's a 20% down payment on a $1.8M Vienna estate plus closing costs.

Buy Before You Sell Program

We help you make a non-contingent offer on your dream Vienna home using bridge financing, then sell your current home with our 60-day guarantee.
