Selling in Meeker County
Sell your home in Eden Valley, MN
If you are selling in Eden Valley, the buyer pool is smaller than in a city, which makes pricing and exposure matter more. Janet Matchinsky prices from local comparable sales and lists on NorthstarMLS and the sites that pull from it, so buyers find it.
The process
How Janet sells in Eden Valley
Start with a call
Reach Janet at (320) 219-2488 with the basics: where the home is in Eden Valley, when you want to move, and any questions.
Walk-through and pricing
She visits the property, notes what buyers will notice, and comes back with a price range built from recent Meeker County sales.
Prepare the home
Preparation is a short, specific list from Janet: repairs that matter, clutter to remove, and staging touches that photograph well.
Photos and the listing
The home goes on NorthstarMLS with photos and a written description, and from there to the sites that syndicate MLS listings.
Showings and offers
As offers come in, Janet walks you through each one and negotiates on your behalf until the terms are right.
Inspection to closing
Janet stays on the file through inspection, appraisal, and closing, and she is still a phone call away after the sale.
Your listing plan
What Janet's marketing can include
Janet builds the marketing plan around the property, so it differs from house to house. Depending on the home, it can include the items below; agree on the schedule together so you know what will happen before the listing goes live.

- Staging before the shoot
- The listing itself
- Social media posts

Sellers ask
What is the first step to selling in Eden Valley?
Ask Janet for a market analysis, which is free and carries no obligation. She will walk through the home, pull comparable sales from NorthstarMLS, and tell you what it would list for. She will also tell you what is worth doing before photos.
Can Janet show homes listed by other brokerages in Eden Valley?
Yes, as a NorthstarMLS member she can show and write offers on any listing in the MLS, not only her own. You work with one broker and still see everything that is for sale.
How fast do homes sell in Eden Valley?
It changes with the season and the price point, so a single average would mislead you. Janet would rather show you current numbers than quote a stale figure, so ask her for the latest report on Eden Valley.
