Selling a house is a complicated thing to do. It involves a lot of paperwork, a lot of meeting with people and most of all, a lot of time. That being the case, it helps to prepare ahead of time. There are a few things that anyone who wishes to sell a house should do prior to putting the "for sale" sign in the front yard. The sooner these things are done, the easier the job of selling the house will be.
Here are a few suggestions for things that you should do prior to putting your house up for sale:
Do you plan to hire a realtor? If so, you should probably do some research to find one. You want to find someone with whom you are comfortable and who has experience selling homes. You don't want to be dealing with a realtor who is still "learning the ropes. If you want to sell it yourself, you should probably pick up a book on the topic or do some Internet research. Try looking up "FSBO", which is short for "For Sale By Owner."
Get your house ready to sell. Is it in tip-top shape? Does it need paint? Roof repair? Yard maintenance? These are things you want to have ready ahead of time. First impressions make a lot of difference; you want you house to look great when it's time to sell. That applies to the inside of the house, as well. Before you show it, you need to make sure that it's clean and tidy.
Get pre-approved for a loan. If you are going to need to buy another house after you sell this one, you should get pre-approved for a loan now. That will make it much easier for you to shop for your new home. An even better idea would be to apply now for a home equity line of credit on your existing property. That will insure that you have an adequate down payment for your next home should you find that one before your current house is sold.
Consider having the house appraised. While realtors have a good idea of how much a home should sell for, you may not if you are selling it yourself. Plus, both mortgage and appraisal fraud are quite common these days. It wouldn't hurt to have an appraisal that is independent of the realtor or lender.
Selling a home isn't particularly complicated; millions of them are sold every year. But the more prepared you are to sell yours, the easier it will be.
