Price and condition are the keys to selling.  Location, of course is a prime factor but that is not within your control.  Price and condition are.  Before investing further into your home prior to selling, call me and we will discuss the pros and cons of updating your property.  Some updates are not costly but will enhance appeal to prospective buyers.   

Internet marketing is the key to reaching buyers.  Make sure your broker has expertise in displaying your listings on line effectively.  That is where 84% of buyers start their search.  Enhanced listings on Realtor.com get the best visibility and have additional options for displaying your property to best advantage.  As your agent I will provide you with an Enhanced Listing on Realtor.com.

If you are planning on purchasing contingent upon selling your current home, put your current home on the market first.  You are more apt to have your offer on your desired home accepted if you have a contingency free contract on your current home.

  Get your pre-qual letter.  Know what you can afford before you start looking.  The pre-qualification process will inform you of any credit issues that might need to be cleared up.  Sometimes there can be a mistake on a credit report.  Address it now so a minor credit issue doesn't hold up a mortgage commitment on a property that you want.

Rather than randomly calling on signs and going to open houses, get a Certified Buyer's Agent who works for you and your interests as opposed to the seller's interests.  You want your own agent to be with you throughout the process, from selecting a property to sitting down at the closing table.
