How the 7 days work
How the 7 days work, day by day
A clear timeline of the 7-Day Stress-Free Home Sale, from the first walk-through to Monday or Tuesday offers, and what you do at each step.
The short version
The program is built backwards from one weekend. Josh and our team start about 14 to 21 days before launch, your home goes live on a Thursday, buyers see it Friday through Sunday, and you review offers on Monday or Tuesday. That's why we say 7 to 14 days from launch to an accepted offer. In the 31 documented closings, the average days on market is 6.9, and 21 of the 31 went under contract in 7 days or fewer.
Before launch: weeks out
- 14 to 21+ days out: Strategy & Pricing Plan
We walk the property, talk through your goals, run the comps, and lay out a clear plan. No pressure, no over-promising.
Your part: Tell us your goals and timeline, and walk the house with Josh. - 10 to 14 days out: Pre-List Prep
Light prep only. We tell you exactly what matters (and what doesn't). Quick touch-ups, decluttering, we coordinate the rest.
Your part: Declutter, clean and handle the small fixes. We tell you what matters. - 7 to 10 days out: Pro Photos + Marketing Buildout
A professional photographer (paid for by us, not you), a crafted online listing, and targeted marketing for buyers and investors.
Your part: Get the house photo-ready for the photographer. We pay for it. - 5 to 7 days out: Launch as "Coming Soon"
Your home goes straight to our list of motivated buyers and local investors, and every agent whose buyers are searching for a home like yours.
Your part: Keep the house in showing shape and plan for the weekend.
Launch week: day by day
- Typically Thursday: Go Live Everywhere
MLS, every major home search site, social media and neighborhood platforms. No showings yet; pent-up demand fuels the weekend.
Your part: Look over the live listing and flag anything we should fix. - Friday to Sunday: Showings & Feedback
We manage scheduling, screening buyers and answering questions, so you get real feedback without the disruption.
Your part: Plan to be out during showings, and leave the buyers and their questions to us. - Monday to Tuesday: Review Offers & Choose the Best Option
We go through every offer, simply and clearly. The best one isn't always the highest price. Once you're comfortable, we lock it in.
Your part: Read each offer with Josh and decide what you'd accept, negotiate or reject.
These timing windows come from Josh's 7-Day Stress-Free Home Sale report. Every home is different, and the exact schedule is set at your Strategy and Pricing Plan.
