The Moment I Almost Backed Out
When I volunteered to coach my son’s flag football team, I had no idea what I was signing up for.
No experience.
No plan.
Just a clipboard, a whistle, and a bunch of kids expecting me to know what I was doing.
That little voice in my head kept asking,
“Can I really do this?”
I didn’t want to let my son down. I didn’t want to mess up in front of the other parents. I was overwhelmed until another coach stepped in with something simple but powerful:
a playbook.
It gave me the structure I was missing. The confidence I needed. And suddenly, I wasn’t guessing anymore.
That experience stuck with me. Because when it comes to selling your home, most people feel the exact same way I did on that field.

And What it Taught Me About Selling Your Home
A few weeks ago, I signed my son up for flag football.
Then came the surprise: I also volunteered to coach his team.
I’ll be hones. I was excited, but also completely out of my depth. I hadn’t coached before, didn’t know the drills, and definitely didn’t want to be “that coach” just winging it in front of 12 kids and a row of skeptical parents.
That’s when another coach, someone who’d been doing this for years, pulled me aside.
He handed me a simple playbook.
It had drills, practice schedules, game day strategies... everything.
Was I still nervous? Of course.
But now I had a plan.
And that changed everything.
Our practices were smoother. The kids were more focused.
And instead of hoping things would work out, I had a strategy I could trust.
It made me realize something:
Selling a home is a lot like coaching for the first time.
Most homeowners feel overwhelmed. There’s pressure to get it right. You’re trying to make the biggest financial move of your life... and many just end up winging it guessing at price, staging, timing, or relying on generic advice that doesn’t apply to our market.
That’s exactly why I created the SmartSellNow Pembroke Pines Home Sellers Playbook.
It’s your version of that coaching playbook.
It takes you by the hand and shows you:
How to price your home for maximum buyer interest
Which prep steps add real value (and which to skip)
The exact marketing moves we use to attract serious offers fast
How to avoid the hidden traps that cost local sellers tens of thousands
And the best part? It’s built specifically for Pembroke Pines homeowners. Not some generic national advice that doesn’t reflect what’s happening in our neighborhood.
If you're even thinking about selling, do yourself a favor:
You don’t need to guess your way through the process.
You just need a solid game plan.
Stay Safe,
Mike
