Frequently Asked Questions | The Cape House Team

Everything you need to know about working with Katie Clancy and her team on Cape Cod.

The Cape House Team is a Cape Cod real estate team led by Katie Clancy with William Raveis Real Estate. We help clients buy, sell, and value homes across Cape Cod, and our sister company, The Cape House Contracting, handles repairs and remodeling. Since 2019 we have closed more than $100M in sales, and our listings have sold for an average of 104% of list price.

We focus on the Mid and Lower Cape, including Dennis, South Dennis, East Dennis, Dennis Port, Yarmouth, South Yarmouth, Yarmouth Port, Harwich, Harwich Port, and Marstons Mills. We have also sold homes in Centerville, Orleans, Chatham, Mashpee, Wellfleet, and Barnstable.

Yes. Many of our clients are adult children handling a parent's home from a distance, and we manage the process for you. We coordinate the pre-listing inspection, repairs, cleanout, pricing, marketing, and closing, and keep you updated by phone, email, or video call so you never have to be on the Cape to get it done.

We can arrange a pre-listing inspection and manage the repairs for you. The Cape House Contracting brings in trusted subcontractors, so you do not have to hire and supervise trades yourself. This helps you price with confidence and avoid surprises once a buyer's inspection happens.

Your home's value depends on its town, neighborhood, condition, location, and recent comparable sales. You can get a free instant estimate with our home valuation tool, and we will follow up with a more accurate market analysis based on a visit to your property. Check here!

Every listing gets professional photography, a dedicated property website, and targeted digital advertising on Google, Facebook, and Instagram. We also promote it through our weekly newsletter and social channels. Katie's clients often mention her internet marketing skills, which is a big reason our homes sell close to or above asking price.

Spring and early summer are often strong because buyers are visiting and shopping for second homes, but well-priced homes sell throughout the year. The right time depends on your goals, your property, and the local market, and we can help you plan a listing date.

Yes. Many of our buyers are purchasing a second home, vacation home, or future retirement home on the Cape. We explain town differences, flood zones and insurance, septic and Title 5 requirements, and seasonal considerations, and we can connect you with local lenders, inspectors, and contractors.

We are the official real estate partner of a local luxury auction house, which can help appraise and sell valuable art, rugs, antiques, and collectibles. This is especially helpful when you are selling an estate or downsizing.
