Question: What’s the first step to selling my home?
Answer: The first thing you need to do before selling your home is contact us at Dargan Real Estate. Seriously!
If you want to sell your home and move to a new home in the same area or another, you need to know what is out there. Contacting a knowledgeable Realtor is the first step. They can do a search on the MLS system that fits the exact criteria you are looking for. You can see the price, size, condition, and interior photos of homes that may interest you. It is important for you to know what the value of your current home is.
You also need to know what has sold in your area recently and in the past six months, as well as you need them to tell you what your home is worth. Then you will know range it can sell for to see if you can afford to move to your next location and to see how much equity you have in your home, etc. They can also show you all the competition in your neighborhood, price point and area. Once you see a range of what your home is worth, you know how much you owe on the home, etc.
Your Realtor can advise you what you need to do to your home to get top dollar for it. I have a knowledge and background in interior decorating and home staging. If you want to SELL your home you have to think like a buyer. Your home needs to be staged to sell. You need to spruce up your curb appeal, do some touch up paint , declutter etc . Again the first step is to call your Realtor (Dargan Real Estate ) and we will walk you through the entire process to get your home ready to List and Sell! Give us call us today at 843.712.2585!
