Sellers Tips & Articles5 Things to Do Before You Sell Get estimates from a reliable repairperson on items that need to be replaced
soon, such as a roof or worn carpeting, for example. In this way, buyers will
have a better sense of how much these needed repairs will affect their costs. Have a termite inspection to prove to buyers that the property is not infested. Get a pre-sale home inspection so you’ll be able to make repairs
before buyers become concerned and cancel a contract. Gather together warranties and guarantees on the furnace, appliances, and
other items that will remain with the house. Fill out a disclosure form provided by your sales associate. Take the time to be sure that you don’t forget problems, however minor, that might create liability for you after the sale.
