5 Things to Do Before You Sell
1. Get estimates from a reliable repairperson
on items that need to be replaced soon, such
as a roof or worn carpeting, for example. In
this way, buyers will have a better sense of
how much these needed repairs will affect their
costs.
2. Have a termite inspection to prove to buyers
that the property is not infested.
3. Get a pre-sale home inspection so you’ll
be able to make repairs before buyers become
concerned and cancel a contract.
4. Gather together warranties and guarantees
on the furnace, appliances, and other items
that will remain with the house.
5. Fill out a disclosure form provided by your
sales associate. Take the time to be sure that
you don’t forget problems, however minor,
that might create liability for you after the
sale.
