1.
Choose a REALTOR®. This is probably the most important step. You will
trust this person to market your property and represent your best
interests in the transaction.
2. Determine a price. Your agent should perform a comparative market
analysis (CMA) that identifies what properties similar to yours
have recently sold for and what prices similar properties are being
offered at.
3. Do any repairs to prepare your home for
sale. This will allow
your home to look its best during showings and bring the highest
price.
4. Put your home on the market. Buyers need to know your property
is for sale.
5. Showings. Your agent will coordinate all showings and schedule
all appointments. It is important to have the home clean at the
time of showing and it is best if you are not home. Buyers feel
more comfortable when the Sellers are not around.
6. Offers. Your agent will explain the advantages and disadvantages
of all offers and assist you in negotiating the best offer available.
7. Closing. Your agent will coordinate all aspects of the closing
including ordering title insurance, drafting the deed, transfer
return and other necessary closing documents.
