How I Work For You as Your Listing Agent

Listen + Plan

Your next step, your timeline, and what you need the sale to accomplish should guide the entire plan. We will build a strategy around your goals rather than rushing to choose a listing date.

Price With Purpose

We will study comparable sales, your home's condition, and current competition to choose a thoughtful pricing strategy. Just as importantly, I will help you understand the estimated amount you may receive after the expenses of the sale.

Prepare the Property

Together, we will create a practical preparation plan focused on the repairs and improvements most likely to help your sale, while avoiding unnecessary expenses that may not provide a meaningful return.

Create the Story

Professional photography, video, and thoughtful written marketing will highlight what makes your property special, including the home, land, layout, location, school district, and everyday lifestyle it offers.

Launch + Show

MLS, syndication, social and a sign go out together, and showings are managed so you know who is coming and when.

Negotiate + Manage

I bring you every offer with the math attached, then hold the deadlines through inspection, appraisal and closing.

Part of my process

Helping you prepare before we list

As part of my listing process, I arrange for a walkthrough with a licensed home inspector before your property goes on the market. This is not a formal home inspection or written inspection report. Instead, it gives us another experienced set of eyes to help identify possible red flags involving the roof, mechanical systems, septic system, foundation, or other major components. The goal is to recognize potential concerns early so we have time to discuss our options, prepare thoughtfully, and reduce surprises once your home is under contract.

Having that information early gives you options. You may choose to make a repair, disclose the condition and account for it in the price, or leave it as-is with clear expectations. Although no inspection can predict every issue or a buyer's response, being informed helps reduce surprises and gives you more control over the process.

Getting Listed in Logan County

  1. 01

    Interview + Goals

    We will walk through the property together and talk about your timeline, your next move, and what you need the sale to accomplish. This is also your opportunity to ask me questions and decide whether I am the right REALTOR® for you.

  2. 02

    Price + Net

    I bring comparable sales and a price range, and an estimated seller net — your sale price less payoffs, taxes, closing costs, compensation and any credits — so you can decide with the real number in front of you.

  3. 03

    Listing Agreement

    This sets the price, the term and the compensation. Commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable. Nothing in the agreement is a standard you're required to accept — we agree on it together, in writing.

  4. 04

    Disclosures

    Agency disclosure, anti-discrimination and fair housing, anti-fraud, surveillance and recording notice, and the Ohio residential property disclosure form. I will review each disclosure with you, explain its purpose, and make sure you have an opportunity to ask questions.

  5. 05

    Photos + Launch

    Photography and video are scheduled once the property is ready, and we launch when the listing is complete — not before.

How I Market a Listing

  • MLS and syndication to the major search portals
  • Professional photography
  • Video and drone B-roll
  • Social and digital promotion
  • Sign and lockbox
  • Print and digital materials

What a given property needs varies. We decide the mix together when we set the plan.

From Listed to Sold: the Selling Process

  1. 1Showings + Feedback

    Showings are scheduled around your household, and I pass along what buyers and their agents actually said.

  2. 2Offer Review

    We read every term, not just the price: financing, contingencies, dates, possession, and what it nets you.

  3. 3Multiple Offers

    If more than one arrives, we compare them side by side and decide on a strategy before anyone responds.

  4. 4Accept + Contract

    Signatures make it a contract and start the deadlines. I put those dates on a calendar we both work from.

  5. 5Inspection + Remedies

    The buyer inspects and may request repairs, credits or a price change. You can agree, counter or decline, and we weigh each against your timeline.

  6. 6Appraisal + Remedies

    The lender's appraiser sets value, and may call out required repairs. If value comes in low we have options, and we'll go through them.

  7. 7Clear to Close

    Underwriting signs off, title work and payoffs are ordered, and the closing figures are finalised.

  8. 8Final Walk-Through

    The buyer confirms condition and any agreed repairs before closing, so we handle loose ends beforehand.

  9. 9Closing + Keys

    You sign, the payoff clears, funds are disbursed, and possession transfers on the terms in the contract.

What Comes Out At Closing for an Ohio Seller

Brokerage compensation

The compensation agreed in your listing agreement — negotiable, and not set by law.

Buyer costs and concessions

Anything you agreed to pay toward the buyer's closing costs or rate.

Property and closing items

Loan payoffs, prorated property taxes, title and escrow fees, transfer fees and recording.

Repairs and credits

Repairs you agreed to make, or credits given in place of them.

Your net, plainly

Sale Price − Payoffs − Taxes and Closing Costs − Brokerage Compensation − Concessions and Credits

I'll put your estimate of each line in writing before you sign a listing agreement.

Questions people ask about selling in Ohio

What should I do before listing?

Steven Holliday helps you prepare before your property lists. As part of the listing process a licensed home inspector walks the property with Steven Holliday before it goes on the market — not a formal inspection or written report, but an experienced second set of eyes on the roof, mechanical systems, septic, foundation and other major components. Together you then decide which repairs are worth making, which to disclose and price for, and which to leave as they are. Photography and video are scheduled once the property is ready.

What does Steven Holliday do to market a listing?

Steven Holliday markets a listing with photography, video and a written description covering the land, the layout, the school district and the road, then launches the MLS entry, portal syndication, social and digital promotion, print and digital materials, and a sign and lockbox together. Showings are then managed so a seller knows who is coming and when.

What disclosures does a seller have to provide in Ohio?

An Ohio seller completes the agency disclosure, the anti-discrimination and fair housing notice, the anti-fraud notice, a surveillance and recording notice, and the Ohio residential property disclosure form. Steven Holliday reviews each disclosure with the seller, explains its purpose and makes sure there is a chance to ask questions, and the forms are completed before the property goes on the market.

What are seller closing costs in Ohio?

Seller closing costs in Ohio come out of the sale price at settlement, and Steven Holliday itemises them before a listing agreement is signed: loan payoffs, prorated property taxes, title and settlement fees, county conveyance and transfer fees, any HOA or property-specific charges, brokerage compensation, and any concessions or credits negotiated with the buyer. Brokerage compensation is negotiable and is not set by law.

What's your home worth?

I would be glad to prepare a thoughtful price range using comparable sales, your property's condition, and the homes currently competing in the market. There is no pressure or obligation. Whether you plan to sell soon, a year from now, or are simply curious, good information is a helpful place to begin.

    Begin by sharing the property address. From there, I can start gathering the information needed for an initial review.

  2. 02

    A few details

    Anything you know about condition, acreage, updates or outbuildings.

  3. 03
