Question 1

My house and garage are full - can SASH provide assistance with this?

Accepted Answer

Yes, SASH is very experienced with managing the process of divesting household items prior to the home sale. We contract with excellent, professional companies who specialize in efficient and cost-effective downsizing and moving services. SASH can also coordinate steps to monetize household items through estate sales or online auctions. This offsets the costs of cleaning out the home, and can sometimes create additional income for our clients.

Question 2

Who does the packing and moving for SASH’s clients?

Accepted Answer

We have a list of several local packing and moving services that we contract with to provide this important assistance to our clients.  They are selected to provide high quality service, and to be tuned into our clients’ specific needs all the way through until the final box is unpacked in the new home.

Question 3

What if the SASH client wants to do their own packing and moving?

Accepted Answer

That is always an option. Some of our clients have chosen to use their own family members and other volunteers to pack and move them. This may seem like a less expensive option, but we have also found that it is not entirely dependable to use volunteers. Sometimes the packing and moving drags out for months as our clients wait for helpers to show up, or items get broken because they were not packed professionally.  Your Client Service Manager can help with discussing different options available to you.

Question 4

Is SASH qualified to do updates or repairs on clients’ homes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. SASH has renovated over two hundred homes since 2006, from light cosmetic updates to full scale, engineered and permitted renovations. SASH is a licensed, bonded, and insured general contractor, and we only use licensed and insured subcontractors to perform work on our clients’ homes. Our extensive experience creates great outcomes for our clients, because we select improvements that appeal to current buyers, and we plan repairs and updates that will provide a strong return on investment in the sale.

Question 5

Do clients stay in the home while the renovation work is being done?

Accepted Answer

SASH only begins work on the home after our clients have moved out. This allows the work to be more efficient and cost-effective, causes less disruption to our clients’ daily routines, and preserves privacy and safety for our clients. We wait to begin until our clients have completed their move.

Question 6

What does SASH do to make the home sell for the highest possible price?

Accepted Answer

We do not take lightly the responsibility that our clients have entrusted to us, which is to sell their home for the best possible outcome. To this end, we use professional cleaners to deep clean the home before it is listed on the market. In every case we can, we also hire a professional stager to present the home beautifully. SASH uses excellent photographers, creates high quality, full color flyers, syndicates the listing to multiple websites, and represents the client with skilled and experienced negotiation.  We work hard to deliver outstanding results.
