Researching the Market

STEP 3: Walkthrough

• Walkthrough your home with your agent
• Show them the 10 things you love about your home
• Point out any repairs or renovations you’ve done to the home
• Ask your agent for advice on repairs, upgrades, and staging
• If you are unsure, ask your agent if a general pre-inspection should be scheduled before the sale

STEP 4: Determine the Listing Price & Marketing Plan

• Work with your real estate agent to determine the best listing price – every home is different! If you overprice a property, it could potentially hurt your chances of getting top dollar for your home
• Review a comparative market analysis with your agent, which determines price point based on the sale price of similar homes in your neighborhood
• Determine if any renovations could increase the value of your home

DID YOU KNOW…?
The listing price of your home is based on many factors. This includes the lot size, the square footage, location, home’s condition, the year the home was built, the current market and so on.
