1
Meet With Your Agent
Your agent can save you a lot of time and energy by guiding you through the pre-listing phase. They are there to serve you and help you decide if listing your home is the right option.
2
Pre-Qualify to Buy
Get pre-qualified to buy your next home before putting your current one on the market. Working with a reputable mortgage pro will help you understand what you need to net from your current home and achieve your goals for the next one
3
Price Correctly
Listing your home at the proper market value is critical to selling within a reasonable time frame. Be cautious of making decisions based on valuations online. Instead, use your agent's knowledge of the local area as a resource
4
Pre-Inspect
Home inspections are often where a home sale can go wrong. Material defects may need to be repaired prior to a buyer purchasing the home. Determine these potential fixes before you list, instead of during the negotiation process.
5
De-Clutter
If your house is cluttered or filled with personal mementos, it's more difficult for a buyer to picture themselves living there. Placing large pieces of furniture or family photos in storage is worth the effort to help your home sell quicker.
6
Professional Photography
The modern-day home search usually starts online and first impressions are very important. Make sure your real estate agent uses a pro photographer in order to show your home in the best light.
