Question:
“We plan to sell our home and get it on the market in the next few weeks. What’s the first step, getting an appraisal?”
Answer:
You certainly can get an appraisal, but you’ll be shelling out $500 for what your agent will do for free.
Basically, your steps are:
- Find a good agent
- Determine the price of your home
- Have your agent advise you of any profitable fixups and do the ones you want to do
- Get your home on the market
Not too complicated, and it doesn’t involve spending a bunch of cash unnecessarily.
