Getting Ready to Market Your Home
Once you have decided to market your home for sale and have selected a real estate professional to assist you, you need to prepare yourself for an effective and swift marketing campaign.

Disclosures – The State of Utah requires sellers and their agents to disclose material facts about a property that may affect a buyer’s decision to purchase. Make sure you understand the Seller Disclosure Documents and what you will need to disclose to buyers who will consider purchasing your property.

Repairs – Without making major improvements or spending a lot of money, take the time and make the effort to make some small repairs that might cause buyers to overlook your house or to become concerned about it. Repairing cracks in the wall, repainting worn paint, planting flowers, or fixing squeaky doors are good examples of repairs to make.

Neutralize the Décor of Your Home
Consider replacing out-of-date carpeting, painting odd-colored rooms, removing large amounts of family pictures, and otherwise making your home as neutral as possible. You may also want to have your pet as out-of-sight as possible and may even consider hiring some cleaning help to ensure that your home is always as clean and ready to show as possible.
