Once you have made the decision to sell your home contact your mortgage provider to see what options are best for you moving forward.
Meet with a Realtor
Shop around and find the Realtor that makes you most comfortable. Among many things good realtor will do what is in the best interest of you, will provide you with the information you need, communicated regularly with you and be available to answer you questions.
Preparing your Home
When presenting your home to prospective buyers, first impressions are crucial. Buyers begin judging your home the moment they see it. Making sure your home is well maintained, clean and clutter free can make all the difference.
Set on an asking Price
Incorrect pricing is the # 1 reason that some properties are listed for sale eventually fail. With the information provided to you by your Realtor, you will be able to understand the factors involved in the estimated value of your home. Such factors include comparable pricing and current market stats.
Effectively Marketing your property
The next step will be to sign a Listing Agreement, which gives your Realtor permission to post your property on MLS (Multiple Listing Service). They’ll then begin marketing your home through a variety of mediums — digital and traditional — and inform other Realtors (representing buyers) that your property is on the market.
Successfully Negotiating a deal
Negotiating the transaction is the most complex part of selling a home. Once you have received a offer and you closely reviewed the details of the offer with your realtor, you can then accept the offer, reject it or make a counter offer.
Closing
Once you have accepted an offer, the buyer will want to conduct an inspection which may result in more negotiation depending on the results of the inspection. Finally, your realtor and Lawyer will walk you threw the paperwork and legal parts.
Congratulations you have successfully sold your home!
