Seller Information

Ready to sell your home? To better understand this process I’ve created a checklist to help:

Before Listing

When selling, in order for your home to standout it’s important that your home is tidy and well maintained.

• Find a good realtor
• Deep clean
• Declutter
• Make necssary repairs — change light bulbs, paint, etc.
• Update curb appeal

Work with an Agent to List

• With your agent, determine a price to list at
• Fill out the appropriate disclosures
• Fill out utilities sheet
• Sign listing agreement
• Discuss time needed for showings
• Allow time to photograph the property
• Allow agent to install a key lockbox
• Agent will place sign on property

After an Offer is Accepted

• Buyer will submit the earnest money
• Buyer will scedule any inspections
• Buyer will get homeowners insurance secured
• If needed, buyer will check for permitted building
• Wait for appraisal completion — ordered by lender
• Wait for closing date to be set
• Transfer utilities
• Collect any documents, warranties, keys, garage door openers, etc. that will be given to the buyer at closing
• Arrange for cash to close
• Attend closing and sign documents
