Every home has a story — and this one is a good one!

We’re so excited to share that 1587 W Kesler Ln in Chandler went under contract in just 11 days, well below the area’s average time on market. 🎉

This sale was more than just a quick win — it was a true collaboration between agent and seller, careful planning, and a lot of attention to the small details that make a big difference in today’s market.

Starting with Strategy: The Prelisting Appointment

Before we ever took a single photo or created a marketing plan, we started with a prelisting appointment. This is one of my favorite parts of the process because it allows me to truly understand the seller’s goals and build a timeline that makes sense for them.

In this case, the seller had already purchased a new home that was under construction, so coordinating the timing between their build completion and the sale of their current home was essential. During this meeting, we discussed:

• Comparable sales (comps) to determine the right price strategy.

• Market timing to align the listing with their upcoming move.

• Recommended repairs and updates that would make the home shine to buyers.

We talked through everything from curb appeal to small improvements that would show buyers the home had been well cared for — and the seller was amazing at following through!

Prepping for Success: Repairs and Improvements

One of the reasons this home made such a strong impression on the market is because we took the time to prepare it thoughtfully. We knew that first impressions matter, and with today’s buyers, presentation can make all the difference.

Here’s what we tackled before listing:

✨ Rock landscaping in the backyard – Not only did this freshen up the space, but it also gave the yard a clean, low-maintenance Arizona look that buyers love.

✨ Deep cleaning – Hard water stains in the primary bathroom shower were carefully removed, ensuring every surface sparkled for showings and photos.

✨ New exterior paint – A fresh coat on the house and side gate brought instant curb appeal and made the home look beautifully maintained.

✨ Termite treatment – Taking care of preventative maintenance ahead of time helped give buyers confidence in the home’s condition.

These updates weren’t major renovations — they were smart, strategic choices that elevated the entire presentation of the property.

Final Touches: The Pre-Photo Appointment

Once the repairs were complete and the home was clean and polished, we scheduled a pre-photo appointment. This step is so important! It’s my opportunity to walk through the home with the seller, make any last-minute tweaks, and ensure everything will look amazing on camera.

During this appointment, we focused on:

• Light staging adjustments to make rooms feel balanced and inviting.

• Decluttering smaller areas to highlight space and flow.

• Rearranging a few décor pieces and furniture items for better visual symmetry.

By the time our professional photographer arrived, the home was photo-ready — but that didn’t stop us from making a few final touches on the spot! We fluffed couch pillows, moved the TV slightly to capture the perfect view through the kitchen pass-through, and made sure every angle told the home’s story beautifully.

These little details might sound small, but in real estate photography, they’re everything. The goal is to help potential buyers imagine themselves living there, and those small tweaks go a long way toward creating that connection.

Launching to Market: The Power of Presentation

Once the listing went live, we made sure it stood out everywhere — from MLS to social media.

The combination of professional photos, a warm and engaging property description, and targeted marketing drew immediate interest. The home’s proximity to Chandler Hospital, shopping, and easy freeway access was a major selling point, and the updates gave buyers peace of mind that the home was well maintained.

The result?
✅ Strong showing activity right away.
✅ Multiple inquiries from interested buyers.
✅ And a signed contract after just 11 days on the market!

That’s less than half the average market time in the area — a true win for the seller and a testament to the power of thoughtful preparation and strategic marketing.

The Secret Sauce: Coordination and Communication

This transaction worked so smoothly because of the collaboration between all parties involved.

From the initial prelisting meeting to managing the timeline around the seller’s new build, communication was key. We stayed in close contact throughout, making sure every step — from repairs to photo day — fit perfectly within the seller’s moving schedule.

It’s moments like this that remind me why I love what I do. Real estate isn’t just about selling homes — it’s about helping people navigate major life transitions with as little stress as possible.

The Next Chapter: Accepting Backup Offers

While we’re officially under contract, we are accepting backup offers for this home — and interest remains strong. The market in Chandler continues to move quickly, and homes that are priced right and well-prepared are finding buyers faster than ever.

So, if you missed out on this one, don’t worry! There’s still an opportunity to be next in line. And if you’re thinking about selling your own home, this is your reminder that preparation, presentation, and partnership truly pay off.
