Getting Ready to Sell Your Home

Preparing a written plan before you start selling your home will ensure you are taking the proper steps to getting the process right the first time. We live in what economists are calling a "buyer's market," meaning the supply of real estate for sale heavily outweighs the demand. Careful planning will help you adapt your strategy to meet the demands of a buyer's market.

Consider following recommendations as you formulate your new plan:

1. Examine your motivation for selling. Make sure you are totally committed to the process.
2. Be represented by a real estate agent. Your agent will have access to the research you need to determine your asking price and also be able to assist you if you are looking into purchasing a new property.
3. Prepare your home for sale by improving its curb appeal and interior design. Excessive upgrades are not typically needed, but a fresh coat of paint on the walls and brighter lighting could have a positive effect on potential buyers.
4. Repair obvious maintenance issues like cracked drywall, leaky pipes, or exposed wiring.
5. Follow your real estate agent's lead. Your agent is trained on how to stage your home properly for resale and how to properly interpret the upcoming paperwork.

Be totally committed to your written plan so that you can enjoy the process and make it an enjoyable experience.
