Most real estate experts agree that spring is the best time of year to sell a house. With the blue skies and blooming flowers, the marketing shots practically take themselves and people are chomping at the bit to move and get settled well before fall. If you’re one of the many homeowners looking to list your house this spring, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and get to work! To get started, check out this to-do list from Phil and the team at ProTech Home and Property Inspections, Inc.

Find a Reliable Realtor

Whether you’re buying or selling a home, choosing the finest real estate agent to work with is essential to getting the best possible deal. Personal recommendations are the most common and usually the most comfortable way to find a realtor, but there are plenty of other ways to get in touch with an agent if you don’t already know one. Do research online and read reviews to find the right one for you.

Get a Pre-Listing Inspection

Doing a pre-listing home inspection can help you sell your house faster by making it more appealing to potential buyers. Recognize that this won’t take the place of the inspection a homebuyer will arrange during the due diligence process. Nevertheless, it will let you know if there are any significant issues that might deter buyers or make the escrow procedure more difficult. Your home will stand out from the competition if you fix the issue and demonstrate to potential buyers that it has a clean bill of health.

Get Ready for Showings

Finally, once you have a trusted realtor and all major home repairs completed, you can start preparing to show your home. Do a deep cleaning of your whole house and remove any excess clutter. You want your home to look its best when you have professional photographs taken and for any showings or open houses you’ll have scheduled.

Before you list your home this spring, schedule a pre-listing inspection with one of the experts at ProTech Home and Property Inspections. Whether your house is in Atlanta or one of the surrounding areas, contact us today at (470) 592-8828 to make an appointment for an inspection.
