The very first thing you should do when selling your home is to find a real estate agent. Your agent will be your trusted guide when it comes to preparing your home for sale, pricing, marketing, showing your property, facilitating offers, and guiding you through escrow to closing. They will be your advocate and ally each step of the way.
Preparing your home for sale will depend on your individual situation, however, the very first thing will be to clean, declutter, and depersonalize. You’ll want to make sure that your home is photo-ready and appealing to buyers. Minimizing things like trinkets and photos will allow the buyer to see themselves in the space, which will make them more motivated to put an offer in on your property!
In California, home owners are required to complete the Transfer Disclosure Statement (TDS) during the selling process. The TDS ensures that the seller discloses any and all known materials facts to the buyer (such as airplane noise or the condition of the roof) so that there are no surprises or ill intent in the sale.
Your real estate agent will review recent sales in your neighborhood, the current real estate market and the unique features of your home to help you determine the best list price for your home. It is important to note that the real estate market changes throughout the year, so it is important to stay up-to-date with neighborhood sales and current market reports. If you’ve received a price opinion from an agent months ago, for example, the value of your home may be different. Reach out again!
Your selling timeline will vary depending on factors such as your local market conditions, the time of year, the features of your property, the location of your home, etc. Each situation is different, however, your agent will give you advice on how to sell as quickly, and as smoothly, as possible in your market!
