Selling a Home

Hire a REALTOR

REALTORS are up-to-date on critical processes and can help keep you out of trouble. They can also help you get your home sold at the best price in the right time frame. Equally as important, REALTORS add objectivity to an inherently emotional transaction: the sale of your home.

Before Your Home Is Listed

It is important to have your home in good showing condition before buyers start going through it.

Here are some steps to take:

Touch up interior and exterior paint as needed.
Make sure the front is clean and spruced up – curb appeal will create a favorable first impression.
Trim bushes and plants as needed, and make sure the lawn is kept mowed and trimmed.
Keep the interior clean, de cluttered and odor-free. Eliminate evidence of pets.
Minimize personal items such as family photos. You want the buyers to see themselves living in the home.
Consider putting excess furniture and belongings in storage. The less cluttered the better. Now’s the time to clean out the garage and sell, give away or throw away items you don’t need anymore.
Consider having a pre-listing home inspection performed. Buyers will be hiring professional inspector; here’s your chance to address problems in advance.

During the Listing Period

When potential buyers visit your home, either be absent or make yourself as inconspicuous as possible. Make sure your home smells good when buyers enter, flowers, fragrance, cookies, etc.. It makes for a friendly introduction into your home.
