How to Sell Your Washington Home Fast During a PCS — Even on a Tight Timeline

PCS orders don’t wait for anyone — and as a veteran who works with dozens of military families every year, I understand the stress of needing to move quickly, cleanly, and without financial setbacks.

 Here’s the exact process I use to help military sellers get their homes sold fast while protecting their equity.

 1. Pricing Right (Not Lower)

You don’t need to “undercut” the price to sell quickly.

You need:

·         A strong CMA

·         Accurate market timing

·         Strategic positioning

·         A clean listing launch

 I’ve sold homes in 48 hours at full price during PCS season — it’s all about the strategy.

2. Fast Prep Strategy

 Here’s what I tell all PCS sellers:

 ·         Declutter fast

·         Touch-up paint

·         Professional photos

·         Minimize downtime

·         Handle small repairs up front

 This avoids renegotiations and delays.

3. Strong Agent-to-Agent Communication

 When I list a PCS home, every agent knows:

 ·         What timelines we’re working with

·         What the sellers need

·         Which offers are strongest

·         How fast we can close

 This is where experience matters.

4. Understanding VA Buyers

 Many PCS sellers end up selling to other VA buyers.

I know exactly what VA appraisers look for — and what they won’t pass.

This saves you weeks of stress.

5. Using Your Home Sale to Prepare for Your Next Duty Station

I’ll advise you on:

 ·         Temporary housing

·         Using your equity wisely

·         When to buy at the next station

·         Lease vs buy decisions

 PCS moves are emotional — having a roadmap helps tremendously.
