Things every Home Seller should consider
- Do your homework.
Read a couple of books on home selling, go through the real estate section of the local newspaper and attend some Open Houses in the your area.
- Hire a specialist.
As neighborhood real estate agents that specialize in listing
in your area, we know what it takes to sell in this market. We
welcome your call !
- Set the price.
Ask your agent for an analysis of the local market and an opinion of the best price range for your home.
- Set a marketing strategy.
Have your agent discuss a marketing plan and include the main elements in the listing presentation.
- Get the house ready.
With your agent, take a hard, objective look at your home. Prioritize what needs to be done, and decide how much you can spend in time and money to make it look its best before opening it up to buyers. Get rid of all clutter and put some of your stuff in storage to make the rooms and closets roomier. Put together an information packet on local amenities, your utility bills and other helpful information, and provide this to your agent.
- Consider finding a reliable real estate
attorney.
The attorney can help review all the paperwork.
- Keep on top of the process.
Stash some quick clean-up supplies close at hand, and do a fast run-through before letting a prospective buyer preview your home. Your agent should provide you with feedback from agents and their buyers after showings.
