PREPARE NOW TO SELL YOUR HOME NEXT SPRING
It’s decided, you and your family are going to move to a new home next summer, which means you will need to sell your present home in the spring.
Because it is so many months away, you might be tempted to postpone preparations until later. But there is a lot to do before your home is ready to list, and the best way to avoid last minute stress is to start now by meeting with your REALTOR® to make a plan.
Talk with your REALTOR® about realistic pricing, timelines and marketing strategies. Tour “Open Houses” in your neighborhood to check out your competition. Ask your REALTOR® for a list of cost-effective home improvements they recommend that will help to sell your home, and handle all those little repairs you’ve been avoiding.
According to RemodelorMove.com’s latest report, the cost of building materials and labor will be at their lowest this fall, so it pays both financially and emotionally, to prepare now for a successful sale next spring.
