Selling a Home in Florence, MS
The price you list at shapes everything that follows: how many buyers call, how long the house sits, and how much room you have when offers arrive. Audrey Neely represents sellers in Florence and the surrounding area. She sets that price on solid ground, finds buyers, and negotiates on your behalf until the sale closes.
What You Need From the Sale
Every seller has a different finish line. One needs the highest number possible. Another needs to be moved out before a new job starts. A third is selling an inherited house and mostly wants it done cleanly. Audrey begins by learning which of those describes you, along with anything you want to avoid along the way.
That conversation decides the plan. Your timeline, your price expectations, and your flexibility on terms all affect how the home is priced and how offers are weighed once they come in.
Pricing Built on a Comparative Market Analysis
Guessing at a list price is expensive in either direction. Too high, and the house sits while buyers move on to better-priced options. Too low, and you hand money to the buyer on day one.
Audrey prepares a comparative market analysis for your home. It draws on recent market trends, current property values, and neighborhood developments that affect what buyers will pay on your street. The result is a list price you can defend when a buyer's agent pushes back, because it rests on what comparable homes are actually worth.
Getting Your Home Ready for Buyers
First impressions happen fast, and many of them happen online before anyone walks through the door. If your home would benefit from staging, Audrey can connect you with home stagers. She can also put you in touch with home inspectors if you want to catch issues before a buyer's inspection does.
Small fixes and a clean, well-arranged space rarely change what a house is. They often change how quickly buyers picture themselves living in it.
Negotiating Offers on Your Behalf
An offer is a starting point, not a final answer. When one arrives, Audrey reviews it with you: the price, the terms, and the conditions attached. Then she negotiates with the buyer's side to get you the most favorable terms she can.
Price is only one piece. Closing dates, repair requests, and contingencies can matter as much as the number at the top of the page. Having someone handle those exchanges keeps emotion out of the room and keeps the deal moving.
Not every move is a family home. Audrey also works with clients on commercial real estate in Florence. There, location, access, and value matter to a business as much as they do to a household. Rental needs are covered on their own page: rentals in the Florence area.
Seller Support Across the Metro
Florence sellers are not the only ones Audrey works with. Homeowners in Richland, Pearl, and Brandon list with her as well. Knowing how values compare from one town to the next helps her position your home against everything else a buyer is touring that weekend.
If you plan to buy after you sell, the two sides can run together. Read about buying your next home in Florence. Owners of business property should see the page on commercial real estate sales and purchases. You can also return to the

Questions From Home Sellers
How do you decide on an asking price?
Audrey prepares a comparative market analysis that looks at comparable properties, current market trends, and property values in your neighborhood. The asking price comes out of that analysis rather than a rough estimate.
Should I stage my house before listing it?
It depends on the home and how it shows today. If staging would help, Audrey can connect you with home stagers who handle furniture placement and presentation before the listing goes live.
Who handles negotiations with the buyer?
Audrey does. She reviews each offer with you, then negotiates price, closing date, and other terms with the buyer's side on your behalf.
What should I tell you at the first appointment?
Bring your timeline, the price you hope to reach, any date you need to be out of the house, and anything about the property a buyer will ask about. Those four details shape the pricing and the plan.
What if the buyer's inspection turns something up?
Inspection findings usually lead to a round of negotiation over repairs or price. Audrey handles that negotiation and can connect you with a real estate attorney if a question goes beyond the transaction itself.
