Your home is one of the biggest investments you'll ever make. So it stands to reason that when you're selling it, you want to get the highest return possible. There are many things – from major decisions to the littlest things – that can affect the profitability of the sale of your home.
You have certain things you have to consider, including who will be responsible for selling your home for you?
Will it be a real estate agent or you?
Many homeowners are taking the For Sale By Owner route, but for others, it's a burden that isn't worth the commission they save.
You need to be willing to take a look at the current housing market to determine if it's a good time to sell.
It may not be, but you may not have a choice depending on the situation you're in, such as making a move to another community for a new job.
Even in a bad market, there are ways you can increase the value of your home so that you get the most possible money out of the transaction. You'll be hosting open houses or readying your home for a showing if you have an agent. And in the end, what will you do to find the new home of your dreams?
