What are the overall steps in selling A home? E-mail

Essentially these:

  • Meet with your agent to determine your asking price and work out your personal plan for maximum marketability of your home.

  • Review all financing options, including seller financing and other acceptable terms.

  • Make repairs or improvements that will increase the marketability of your home.

  • List your home for sale at a certain price.

  • Permit your home to be shown to prospective buyers.

  • Consider offers and negotiate a sales contract.

  • Have necessary inspections made.

  • Stand by while your buyer applies and is approved for financing.

  • Go to settlement (also "closing" or "escrow" - terms vary by area).

  • Move out of old home and into new one.
