5 THINGS TO AGREE ON BEFORE LISTING YOUR MARITAL HOME
Deciding when to sellDeciding when the right time to sell the house is important and is based off of several factors. Here are some questions to ask when deciding when to list:

HOW YOUR REALTOR CAN HELP FIND THE RIGHT LIST PRICE FOR YOUR HOME
Price is the number one factor in the sale of a home. A property is only worth what one person is willing to pay another to gain ownership of it.
Your Realtor will ensure you receive a price that works and will attract buyers. To figure out what to list your home for one must establish the home’s current market value. Market value is what you could expect to pay for a property of its kind.
STAGING YOUR MARITAL HOME IN A DIVORCE SALE
When it comes to preparing and staging a home when putting it up for sale, there is no difference if it is a regular sale or a sale because of a divorce. Our goal is the same, where we want a quick sale and for top dollar. The only difference between a regular sale and a divorce sale is; that we have to prepare the home and make it look like it is not a divorce sale. Our goal is still to get top dollar, we don’t want to look desperate and have buyers think we want a quick sale and we will take any price that is offered.
