Selling a home takes more than putting it on the market and waiting for offers. Most sellers want strong pricing, smart marketing, and a trusted expert who can guide them through every step. Akimi Oya with Monica Hayes Team / Impact Real Estate helps sellers make informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and move forward with confidence.

Strategic Pricing Guidance
Akimi does not rely on surface-level advice or generic comps. She goes deeper to help sellers price their home with strategy, using market data and clear reasoning to position the property well from the start. That helps sellers feel more confident and reduces the risk of leaving money on the table.

Stronger Marketing Strategy
Some agents do little more than place a home on the MLS. Akimi offers stronger marketing and a more thoughtful approach to how a property is presented. Her goal is to help sellers stand out, attract serious buyers, and create the best possible outcome.

Clear Communication at Every Step
Selling can feel stressful when sellers do not know what is happening. Akimi is known for exceptional communication, thoughtful advice, and strong follow-through. Clients feel informed, protected, and supported throughout the process.

Calm, Skilled Negotiation
Negotiations can shape the final result in a major way. Akimi brings a calm, level-headed approach that helps sellers make smart decisions without getting pulled into emotion. She explains the reasoning behind each move and helps clients stay focused on the best outcome.

A Data-Driven, Real-World Perspective
Akimi brings more than basic agent knowledge. With experience in investment analysis and property ownership, she understands the numbers and the real concerns sellers face. That gives clients practical guidance rooted in both strategy and real-world experience.

Support for More Complex Sales
Some home sales have more moving parts, higher stakes, or added pressure. Akimi is especially strong in handling complex transactions while keeping the experience organized and manageable. Sellers can feel confident knowing they have someone competent in their corner.

Backed by a Strong Team
Akimi is supported by the Monica Hayes Team / Impact Real Estate, including team systems and transaction support that help keep everything on track. That means sellers get both personal attention and strong behind-the-scenes coordination.

Proven Results in Eastern Iowa

With more than $22 million sold in her first two years and over $40 million in local sales across recent years, she brings proven performance and local market knowledge to every listing.
