Seller Questions, Answered
Straight answers about selling on the Treasure Coast
How do I sell my house for top dollar on the Treasure Coast?
Top dollar comes from three things working together: accurate pricing, strong presentation, and confident negotiation. Start with a written CMA based on recent sold comparables in your specific neighborhood — Port St. Lucie's Tradition prices differently than Torino, and Stuart's Sewall's Point commands a premium over interior subdivisions. Then prep the home properly: paint, declutter, fix the small stuff, and invest in professional photography. List on the MLS so the home syndicates to Zillow, Realtor.com, and Redfin, then market it directly to qualified buyers and cooperating agents. Finally, work with an agent who negotiates every offer, inspection, and appraisal personally — not one who hands you off after the listing goes live. Dash handles all of this end to end across Indian River, St. Lucie, and Martin counties.
How long does it take to sell a home on the Treasure Coast?
Time on market depends on price, condition, and season. Well-prepared homes priced in line with recent sold comparables typically attract qualified showings within the first two weeks and go under contract within 30–60 days. From accepted offer to closing, financed deals usually take another 30–45 days for inspections, appraisal, and underwriting; cash deals can close in as little as two weeks. Homes that are overpriced or under-prepared can sit much longer and ultimately sell for less. The single biggest factor under your control is a realistic, data-backed list price from day one — chasing the market downward with price reductions costs both time and final sale price.
What does it cost to sell a house in Florida?
Florida sellers typically pay agent commission (negotiable since the August 2024 NAR settlement), title and closing fees, documentary stamp tax on the deed (currently $0.70 per $100 of sale price in most counties, lower in Miami-Dade), property tax and HOA prorations, and any agreed-upon repairs or buyer concessions. Some sellers also pay an owner's title insurance policy depending on county custom. Expect total seller-side costs to land somewhere in a typical single-digit-percent range of sale price, with commission as the largest line item. Dash provides a written net sheet during your listing consultation so you know your estimated proceeds at multiple price scenarios before you sign anything — no fabricated numbers, just the actual line items for your specific transaction.
Should I sell my house now?
The right answer depends on your equity position, your next move, your timeline, and your local market — not on national headlines. Treasure Coast inventory, mortgage rates, insurance costs, and buyer demand all shift month to month and city to city. A free CMA gives you the actual numbers: what your home would likely sell for today, what you'd net after costs, and what comparable homes are doing in your specific neighborhood. From there you can make an informed decision instead of guessing. Dash provides this with no obligation and no pressure — many sellers use a CMA to plan a sale six or twelve months out, not just an immediate listing.

Frequently asked seller questions
How do I choose a listing agent on the Treasure Coast?
Look for a licensed Florida agent who works your specific market daily, can show you a written CMA backed by recent sold comparables, explains their marketing plan in detail, and communicates clearly. Ask how they price, how they market, how they handle negotiations and inspections, and how often you should expect updates. Dash Hernandez (FL License SL3605300, Realty Hub) represents sellers across Indian River, St. Lucie, and Martin counties with a data-driven CMA, professional photography, full MLS syndication, and direct negotiation on every offer.
What does a listing agent actually do?
A listing agent prices your home using recent comparable sales, prepares it for market with staging and pre-list guidance, produces professional photography and marketing materials, lists it on the MLS so it syndicates to Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin and more, fields buyer inquiries and showings, negotiates offers, manages inspection and appraisal periods, coordinates the title company, and walks you through closing. The goal is top dollar with the least friction possible.
Do I have to pay buyer's agent commission in 2026?
Since the NAR settlement took effect in August 2024, seller-paid buyer-agent compensation is fully negotiable and no longer required. Many Treasure Coast sellers still choose to offer some compensation to keep their home competitive with buyers using financing. Dash will walk you through current local market practice during your listing consultation so the decision fits your situation.
How long after listing does a Treasure Coast home usually sell?
It depends on price point, condition, and how aggressively the home is priced relative to recent comparable sales. Well-priced, well-prepared homes in Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Vero Beach, Fort Pierce, and Jensen Beach typically attract qualified showings within the first two weeks. Overpriced homes can sit for months. A realistic, data-backed list price is the single biggest factor in time on market.
Should I make repairs and updates before listing?
Some prep returns far more than it costs (deep cleaning, fresh paint in neutral colors, decluttering, landscaping cleanup, minor handyman fixes); other projects rarely pay back (major kitchen or bath remodels right before listing). During your consultation Dash walks the home with you and gives a punch list of high-ROI prep items specific to your property and your target buyer.
