Greetings from your retired veteran, your full time Realtor!
Now that we are in a "recession" although congress won't admit it, one of the biggest things you should pay attention to when selling your homem,in this market and any market is disclosure. Why? For many reasons!
First, this is a buyers market, discretion is the better part of valor.... You as the seller have a need to sell your home, and yes, homes are still sold in any market, people still need to relocate, and still need a place to live. On your part, as a seller, is to pay full attention to the sellers disclosure notice your Realtor gives you. This is a document that will protect you, if filled out correctly.
As a seller, it gives you the opportunity to let a future buyer know of any issues you have had, and have with your property. It also lets the future buyers know what they can expect if they desire your home. Even for sale by owners, in Texas, are required to have one. So as a buyer represented by your agent, make sure you take the time to read the sellers disclosure carefully from front to back. As a seller, please take the time to endorse and show the issues you have with your current home, and take the time to "showcase" how you as a homeowner, took the care and diligence to keep your home in it's best condition.
Just my 2 cents to help you sell!
What an important post... I have seen many buyers just sign & go... without reading anything. It is required in Tennessee also for FSBO; but many do not know they are required to have it. Thanks again... I hope you are doing well it has been awhile since I have seen you! Brenda :)
