Blog Post: Sold Story: How This Palm Bay FL Home Sold Over Asking in Just 3 Days

The Situation:
When the owners of 355 Dandurand St SW, Palm Bay FL reached out to me—just days after a family loss—they needed to sell their home quickly and move closer to family in Alabama. The seller’s goals were simple: sell fast, minimize financial burden, and maximize return. As a trusted Palm Bay FL realtor, I stepped in to guide them through this delicate and time-sensitive process.

The Obstacle
‍The home had some common but pressing challenges—an aging 19-year-old roof, minor repair needs, and an A/C float switch issue. The seller had a tight budget and limited time to invest in pre-sale improvements. After an estate sale, there were still household items to clear, and the property needed a serious refresh to attract buyers in the competitive Palm Bay real estate market.

The Solution
‍With deep knowledge of how to sell a home fast in Palm Bay, I brought together a trusted network of professionals. A roofer and handyman agreed to be paid at closing. An HVAC technician fixed the system within minutes. I also coordinated a full-service cleanout, deep cleaning, carpet cleaning, and exterior pressure washing to prepare the home for market.Once staged and professionally photographed, we implemented a 3-phase Compass marketing strategy: starting with Compass Private Exclusive, then Coming Soon, and finally a full MLS launch mid-week to generate maximum visibility.

The Outcome
The results were swift and exceptional. In just 3 days on the market, the home received 4 offers from 4 showings—far surpassing the Palm Bay average of 119 days on market.The sellers accepted an over-asking-price offer, and we closed in under 30 days. This is a perfect example of how pricing smart, preparing well, and working with the right agent can get your home sold quickly—even in a complex situation.
