Selling Your Home in Reading and the Surrounding Towns
Selling a home is about more than putting up a sign. Getting the best price takes accurate pricing, a home that shows well and a marketing plan that reaches every qualified buyer. Premier Realty Group is an education-based, full-service boutique brokerage on Main Street in Reading. We bring local knowledge and a personalized plan to every sale, so you save time, money and agita.

Coordination to Closing
Inspections, the buyer's mortgage commitment, required certificates and deadlines, handled with the attorneys.
Local Expertise
Based in Reading, we focus on the surrounding towns and keep a close eye on local sales.
Why Local Knowledge Matters
Every town's market is a little different, and conditions can vary from one neighborhood to the next. Buyers weigh things like commute, highway access, location and the condition of the home. We use local sales data to help position your home to stand out.
We work with sellers throughout Reading, North Reading, Wakefield, Stoneham, Wilmington, Woburn, Andover, North Andover, Middleton, Tewksbury, Danvers and nearby communities.
Pricing It Right From the Start
The first few weeks on the market are when your home gets the most attention. There's a pool of buyers waiting for new listings, and a home priced accurately at launch tends to see more showings, more offers and a stronger final price. A home that starts too high often sits and ends up selling for less. We'll walk you through the data behind our recommended price.
What Massachusetts Sellers Should Know
A few state requirements catch some sellers by surprise. We'll help you plan for them early.
Smoke and CO Certificate
Before closing, your local fire department inspects the home and issues a certificate of compliance for smoke and CO detectors.
Title 5 Septic Inspection
If your home has a private septic system rather than town sewer, it needs a passing Title 5 inspection.
Lead Paint Notification
Homes built before 1978 require the Massachusetts lead paint disclosure and notification forms.
Offer, Then Purchase and Sale
Accepting a written Offer to Purchase is binding here, followed by a detailed Purchase and Sale Agreement prepared with the attorneys.
Closing Costs
Sellers typically pay the Massachusetts deed excise tax and their own attorney fees, along with the commission. We can help you estimate your net proceeds before you list.
