Thinking about selling in Washingtonville? You might be moving for work, simplifying life with a downsized place, or getting ready for a new chapter in another town. Whatever the reason, selling here takes more than putting a sign in the yard - it’s about preparation, timing, and reaching serious buyers.

Washingtonville real estate has a draw of its own. The Washingtonville Central School District pulls steady interest, and commuters prize the short drive to the Salisbury Mills–Cornwall station or I-84. Add in weekend draws like local events and wineries, and you’ll see why homes that show well don’t sit long.

What’s Your Home Worth?

Pricing starts with knowing exactly where your home stands in today’s market. I’ll run a personalized valuation based on recent Washingtonville sales and current buyer activity.

Listing Strategy That Wins

Local Expertise

Washingtonville has a mix of property types - historic houses near Main Street, newer homes on the edges of town, and low-lying spots near Moodna Creek that need elevation checks. I handle those details early so they don’t hold up your sale.

Property Presentation

Buyers here want homes that feel ready to move into. Fresh paint, a few repairs, or staging can make a Colonial by Vern Allen Park or a ranch outside the village stand out right away.

Pricing & Exposure

We’ll base your price on recent local sales so it shows up in buyers’ saved searches from day one. MLS gets your home broad exposure, while targeted ads bring in commuters who want suburban space with city access.

Offer Management

It’s not just about the number. Strong financing, inspection terms, and a closing date that works for you can all affect your bottom line. I lay out the options clearly so you can pick the best offer.

Closing

From inspection and appraisal to filing New York’s transfer tax, I keep the process on schedule. If repair requests come up, a credit can often keep the deal moving without delays.

What Does It Cost to Sell a Home in Washingtonville?

Most sellers in Washingtonville budget 8–10% of the sale price for all fees and services. That range covers all services and fees, including agent commissions and routine closing costs. New York also collects a 0.4% transfer tax on sales under $1 million.

Attorney involvement is required in New York, so fees for legal review and representation will also be part of your expenses. Add in title insurance, recording fees, and prorated property taxes, and you have the full picture. Light fixes and a thorough clean often outperform major remodels, protecting both your budget and your timeline.

We’ll build a simple estimated net sheet so you can see where the dollars go.
