Five Tips for Selling Your Home

1. Realize the difference between the terms “real estate agent” and “Realtor”. Realtors must be a member of the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and are able to provide an extra level of service. The National Association of Realtors has an excellent reputation of working hard to make home ownership affordable and accessible. Realtors are held to a strict code of ethics founded on the principle of providing fair and honest service to all consumers. Realtor business practices are monitored at local board levels and arbitration and disciplinary systems are in place to address complaints from the public or board members.
   
   
2. Effective marketing is important to ensure that your home receives maximum exposure in the shortest amount of time. Ask your Realtor about all of the ways they intend to market your property. You will want to make sure that they are taking advantage of all the best marketing mediums, including the Internet.
   
   
3. Don't forget the importance of first impressions. Take the time to stand outside of your home and take a realistic look. Imagine yourself as a potential purchaser seeing your home for the first time. Determine what you might
   be able to do to improve to “curb appeal” of your home.
   
   
4. It is very important to disclose to your Realtor any problems with your property. It is common for health, safety, and environmental related inspections to be part of sales contracts. Your Realtor needs this information upfront to ensure that the selling process goes smoothly.
   
   
5. Allow your Realtor to do their job without you being there. Having the owner present while meeting with a real estate professional can make many prospective buyers feel uncomfortable. Your Realtor will be prepared to answer all of the necessary questions.

If you're thinking about selling your home, knowing what it's worth is an important first step take before you begin the selling process.
