The home selling process typically involves these key steps:
-
Choose a Real Estate Agent: Select a trusted agent with experience in your local market.
-
Set the Right Price: Work with your agent to determine a competitive listing price based on market data.
-
Prepare and Market Your Home: Clean, declutter, and stage your home. Your agent will handle professional photos, marketing, and listing on the MLS.
-
Showings and Open Houses: Allow potential buyers to tour your home through scheduled showings and open houses.
-
Review Offers and Negotiate: Evaluate buyer offers with your agent’s guidance and negotiate terms to get the best deal.
-
Under Contract and Inspections: Once an offer is accepted, your home goes under contract. The buyer will schedule inspections and, if needed, request repairs.
-
Appraisal and Final Steps: The buyer’s lender will order an appraisal. Work with your agent to address any final negotiations or paperwork.
-
Closing: Sign documents, hand over the keys, and complete the sale.
A real estate agent can help you navigate every stage, ensuring a smooth and successful sale.
