Seller’s Checklist:

Deciding to sell your home is a crucial decision, and the process can be demanding. Coldwell Banker is committed to making the sale of your home quick, easy, and profitable.

Here’s a checklist to help you get started:

Hire an agent: Contact one of our agents directly. You can find a specific agent using our Agent Search or run an Office Search to find a regional or local office. We suggest looking for an agent who utilizes tools and communications techniques you are comfortable with and has the following attributes:

• Knowledgeable in your housing market
• Highly trained
• Able to provide references

Declutter: In preparation for staging your home, and moving out, it’s never too soon to start weeding out your possessions. Throw out, recycle, give away, or sell the things that you don’t want to move.

Decide what to take with you: You will also need to decide what will be included in the sale before you start showing your home. If you want to take your washer and dryer with you, for example, tell serious buyers before negotiations start.

Start packing early: Anything that you are sure you will not be using before moving day should be boxed.
