  Contacting a Realtor well before placing your home on the market will give you much needed advice on getting your home ready, a realistic selling price and how long you can expect to be on the market before someone buys it.
  
  After carefully selecting a Realtor, the next thing to look into is what it will take to get your property in top shape for prospective buyers. This often includes a good cleaning, some packing and a clear idea of what your competition looks like. For this, simply look on the world wide web at homes that are being advertised in your area. You could even have your broker take you into some of the competition to get a deeper understanding of what home buyers are looking at. Another great place to view what a property should look like when it goes on the market, is to go and visit a furnished model home.
  
  After contacting your realty broker, you are now sitting there with a good list of things that need to be taken care of prior to going on the market. Make a list to help you get through this project on an ongoing basis. Plus, you will feel a sense of accomplishment as each room is checked off as done.
  
  After the meeting with your Realtor, get busy getting the home in the best shape you've ever seen it. Unfortunately, after all your efforts, you may not even want to move. Here's a few approaches on home presentation that should help you along the way.
  
  Now that you are ready for going on the market, walk right back through and see what the camera sees. If you have all your hardwood floors covered up with rugs, roll some of them up. If your furniture needs to be rearranged so the eye of the camera and buyer can see the best features of your home. Make sure it's easy to follow natural pathways through the home and that your furniture is not consuming all the space. If it is, you need to store it.
  
  Between the offer to purchase and the close of contract, you will have other things to deal with. Naturally, you'll be packing and finding the next home for you. You will also be having the buyer's home inspector come in, as well as an appraiser and a surveyor. The buyer will also be doing a final walk through and a follow up home inspection. As noted earlier, it's best to get everything done that you can, prior to placing your home on the market.
  
  If you are trying to sell your house, you should set a price that is practical. Look at properties in your immediate neighborhood and then put your own valuation somewhere between the highest and the lowest. Placing an overinflated value on your house could force you to eventually lower it anyway.
  
  For home sellers out there still afraid of the market, the best thing to do is contact your Realtor and get their professional opinion on home sales in your area. Hopefully, the concepts in this article helped you get a bit more educated on the process.
