LISTINGS
Step 1.
The very first thing that you should do is call your real estate agent. The reason you want to call your real estate agent is to avoid making home selling mistakes before you get started. Your real estate agent can help to put you on the right path and point you in the right direction.
Step 2.
Now that you have selected your real estate agent, it is a good idea to invite your agent to walk through the home with you. You want to decide together the types of repairs you may need to make and how to stage your home. This process is called preparing your home for sale. Generally speaking, less is more.
Step 3.
Choosing a sales price for your home is the last step before listing your home. You might wonder why this is not the first thing that you do, but that's because a) you want to involve your agent in that decision, and b) the price will take into consideration the condition that you ascertained in step two.
You might discover at this point that the sales price for your home is not high enough for you to continue with listing your home. If that is the case, you can lower your expectations or decide to revisit listing your home at another time. Bear in mind there is no such thing as "testing the market." There is only selling or not selling. If you price it right, it will sell.
