How 'Ready' Does Your House Need To Be Before Listing Walkthrough?

"Before we have a pre-listing walkthrough with an agent, how 'ready' does the property need to be? We're not sure what we need to do to make sure the house is ready to list."

​

This is a great question I get often. If you're not sure what projects you should start with or what will financially make the most sense or deliver the best ROI when you sell, we will actually cover those things during a walkthrough. You don't need to have your home in showing-ready condition for the initial listing consultation, especially if you're not sure where to begin. We'll make a list of things that are important to take care of before you sell to get your home in beautiful showing condition.

Timing is important! I always suggest having conversations with a Realtor about listing your home sooner than you might think necessary. The more time you can dedicate to making your home show-ready, the better it will look in professional photographs. Allow yourself the time to take care of projects so it's not a mad dash to the finish line when your professional photography appointment is around the corner.
