Get Ready To Sell Your Home

The home selling process starts months before the home is actually "For Sale".  You must look at the home through the eyes of a prospective buyer and determine what needs to be painted, cleaned, added, removed, and fixed.  Improvements should be made to make the property show well.  Most of these costs are not recovered from the sale and should not be overdone.  You do not want to over-improve your home compared to the neighborhood.  Therefore, cosmetic improvements are very important for a good showing on your home.  Your REALTOR® may be able to help you on which improvements you should and should not do.

List Your Home For Sale

Use a Menden Brothers Realty Inc. REALTOR® to list your home and began marketing.  Keep your home clean during the listing.  Your home can be shown at anytime, so you want it to look its best.  A Menden Brothers Realty Inc. REALTOR® will help you determine what your home is worth.  

Offer and Negotiating

You will have to decide if the offer you received is acceptable or if you should counter their offer. You will need to sign a purchase agreement and other paperwork. Many factors besides price are negotiated with the offer.  These should be discussed between you and your REALTOR®. 

The Closing

The closing is where all the necessary paperwork is completed and signed.  The closing usually brings all the parties to the transaction together.  The buyer will receive the keys and the seller will receive the payment.  Paperwork is also filed with the local property recording offices.
