Find out the Basic Steps of Selling a Home:


As we all know, the home selling process is one of the most important real estate transactions. The entire process may vary from place to place, but the basic selling procedure is almost the same. In today’s world, selling a home needs a lot of preparation, patience and perseverance.


These are the main steps, involved during selling a home that cannot be overlooked:

  • Analyze and review the reasons for selling the home. Leaving your emotions and attachments associated with the house behind; think practically on the ideas how to prepare your home for selling.
  • The next step is to select a right real estate agent who would be able to guide you correctly with the entire proceedings.
  • Determine how much your home is worth; select the best competitive price keeping in mind the surrounding market price. Overpricing the house can be risky.
  • Advertise your home to the market in a proper manner. The agent needs to expose your home to various suitable buyers, since marketing strategy is one of the most important factors for selling a home or any other property.
  • Get the home ready for sale. If required you can do some repair work too, as it is quite rightly said ‘first impression is the last impression’.
  • When an offer comes, let your home be inspected by them and negotiate accordingly. And you have to be little flexible with your offer and your agent should be able to promote your interests and provide a clear transaction.
  • After deciding the final price, when you are ready to sell it, you need to consider the closing and settlement, which is a formal process where all the necessary documentation work needs to be done. The closing is the final step which generally occurs 30 to 45 days after the selling contract has been signed.


Selling your home can be exciting, but it also requires a lot of hard work. Plan your home selling process properly so that you don’t have to face any obstacle and it sells in the shortest period.
