If you’re ready to sell your home, here are some tips to make the selling and moving transition a little easier!
5 Home Selling Tips
These best tips for selling your home will keep surprises to a minimum and give you a checklist for getting your home ready to sell.
1. Know Your Housing Market
When the time is right to sell your home, whether it’s for a work-related move, downsizing, or upsizing – You’ll know it. The truth is that markets fluctuate all the time.
Are you currently in a seller’s market? A buyer’s market? Can you hold off on the sale of your home until the market is right?
2. Have a Moving Plan Before You Sell
Do you have a small rental you can move into between houses? Or are you bunking with family? Are you planning on putting in an offer for a bigger home on the contingency that your home sells?
These are all questions to ask yourself BEFORE you list your home for sell!
3. Find a Real Estate Agent

4. Prepare Your Home for the Sell
Preparing your home to be ready to sell is as important as the selling itself. You will need to clear out clutter, do a deep cleaning, and maybe even consider staging your home for a quick sell.
You may also try a virtual staging home service, where furniture and decorations are added digitally and shown to prospective buyers through pictures or a 3D walk-through.
5. Review Home Buying Offers Carefully
After hosting open houses or walk-throughs, the fun part of receiving offers for your home begins. Review offers from potential home buyers carefully, as they may include contingencies such as wanting you to close quickly or pay for closing costs.
This is another area where qualified real estate agents with years of experience like Spectrum can really help!
