The Emotional Side of Selling: Why Rhode Island Homeowners Choose the Slocum Home Team

Are You Selling a Piece of Your Heart or Just a House?

If you’re thinking about selling your home in Warwick, East Greenwich, Cranston, Coventry, North Kingstown, Providence, or anywhere in Rhode Island, ask yourself this:

Are you ready for the emotions that come with selling?

Because for most homeowners, it's not just a financial decision—it's deeply personal. According to new research from 1000WATT, 87% of sellers describe their real estate agent as an advisorguide, or confidant. That’s no coincidence. Selling is emotional. The right agent matters.

Here’s why the Slocum Home Team is built for this moment.

You’re Not Just Selling a Property. You’re Turning a Page.

Selling a home often marks the end of a chapter—kids grown, jobs changed, families expanded, or lives shifting. And while 25% of sellers say their biggest fear is "not getting the price they want," the truth is the anxiety runs deeper than numbers according to research from 1000watt.

When surveyed, more than half of sellers described their home as a private sanctuary or an extension of their identity. Selling that? It’s heavy. It’s personal.

That’s why sellers don’t want a salesperson. They want someone who gets it.

Why Sellers Choose the Slocum Home Team

At Slocum, we know this isn’t just about paperwork, pricing, and photos.

It’s about:

  • Showing up when it’s hard.

  • Explaining what comes next before anxiety builds.

  • Guiding you through negotiations when emotions are high.

  • Helping you move forward without regrets.

We’ve helped over 1,000 sellers in Rhode Island do just that.
