First Steps to Selling Your Home


1) Choose a Listing Agent

  • A listing agent will represent you and have a fiduciary responsibility to look out for your best interests.
  • Negotiate your listing agreement, including term.
  • I, Scott Swennes would love the opportunity to meet with you.

2) Get Home Ready for Sale

  • Prepare your home for sale by cleaning, decluttering and improving curb appeal.
  • Hire a professional stager to stage your home, and/or ask your real estate agent for help in staging.
  • Make repairs before selling.
  • If you're selling a home where pets live, make alternate plans for your pets.

3) Figure Out How Much Your Home is Worth

  • A sellers biggest mistake is to overprice. Use your agent and the tools at their disposal to price your home in line with sold homes identified in a comparative market analysis report.

4) Market Your Home

  • Your agent should identify the sizzling selling points and choose advertising words to sell.
  • Approve your agent's marketing campaign and involve yourself in the process as well.
  • Consider hiring a virtual tour company to take quality photographs and put a 360-degree virtual tour online.
  • Tweak marketing to increase traffic and showings.
  • Your agent should saturate the internet with photographs and description of your home. Use the your local MLS (multiple listing service) to list your home.
