1.)   Find the right representative                                                                                                          
The experience, knowledge and experience of a dedicated real estate broker who works in the Historic Neighborhoods of Denver can be priceless. A good Realtor® will form a powerful team with his or her clients that makes it possible for them to have a smooth, successful and stress-free sale that can often save the seller thousands of dollars.                                                

2.)  Determine your needs for the sale and for your new home
Selling your primary residence can be tricky because you have to simultaneously be thinking about where you would like to buy. First weigh your priorities – your selling price is certainly important, but having a quick and efficient sale can often be worth just as valuable. Talk to your agent and make sure you’re comfortable with where your priorities are.

At the same time, you should be compiling a needs/wants list for the home you will buy. You will probably have to act fairly quickly when your house sells, so any amount of preparation you can do will serve you well.

3.)  Prepare your house for showing
An un-prepared home can amount to a sales disaster. Your home will never get as much attention from potential buyers as when it is first listed.  Therefore, clearing clutter, cleaning, making repairs, and putting your home’s best foot forward is essential. Don’t put your home on the market until your home is ready for potential  buyers to see it in it's best possible condition.                     

4.)  Find out what your local market looks like
Being realistic about your market is the key to a smooth sale. There is no substitute for a professional real estate broker when it comes to local market knowledge.

5. List away!                                                                                                                                        
Lots of photos and abundant online exposure are the key to getting a good response for your listing.
