What to Do Before Selling Your Home

What to Do Before Selling Your Home

Selling a home is a big undertaking. The process can impact your schedule, your living arrangements and your lifestyle. Fortunately, a little preparation can go a long way — and you don’t have to go through it alone.

Let’s make sure to disrupt your life as little as possible and sell your home for the right price by taking these steps before we list the property.

  • Work with an experienced agent. As you likely know, selling luxury real estate isn’t for every agent. You want someone who is well-versed in the high-end market where your property is located. We’re equipped to stage, market and price your home for the best results.
  • Secure a pre-listing inspection. This can help us better understand the strengths and weaknesses of your property, as well as where we might make some changes before taking photos or showing the home.
  • Stage the home. Purposeful staging helps potential buyers envision themselves in your home, and it’s a crucial element in selling luxury properties. We can bring in professional designers and stagers to help, ensuring your home communicates the right messages to buyers.
  • Leverage photography and videography. With today’s technology, we can work with professionals to create a wide range of imagery and videos that will really sell your home’s story. Add-ons like 3D walkthroughs and aerial footage are also options to help your property stand out.
  • Strike a balance with your showing schedule. Showings can be inconvenient, particularly if you still live in the home. We’ll work together early to create a schedule that can help your home reach a wide audience while also minimizing disruption to your daily life.
