Still Time to Sell Your Shalimar Home Before Year-End? Yes, If You Start Now.
tl;dr Thinking of selling in Shalimar’s Lake Lorraine? There’s still time before year-end. Prep fast, price smart, and skip the profit parasites with 1%.
Yes, you can still sell before December 31. But you can’t snooze. And you definitely can’t afford to hand your equity to the 6% cartel.
Here’s the truth: homes in Shalimar, especially Lake Lorraine, move if they’re prepped right, priced right, and marketed right. What you don’t need? Paying a profit parasite to do what data, photos, and smart negotiation already deliver.
The Year-End Sprint
If you want that SOLD sign before New Year’s Eve, here’s your action plan:
Declutter like you’re moving tomorrow. Buyers want space, not stacks.
Light repairs pay off fast. Fresh paint, swapped bulbs, pressure wash. Small moves = bigger offers.
Set a data-driven price. Don’t chase the market; beat it with the right comp strategy.
Go live everywhere at once. MLS, Zillow, Realtor.com—buyers are watching daily this time of year.
Negotiate like every dollar matters. Because it does.
Most agents won’t tell you this, but the late fall market isn’t dead. Serious buyers are still hunting, military relocations, end-of-year tax moves, families timing school calendars. The key is speed plus precision.
At Uber Realty, we’ve helped Shalimar sellers pocket $15,000+ more by ditching the 6% model. Same MLS. Same buyers. Same offers. The only difference? You keep your equity instead of funding someone’s billboard.
