So I had some requests to write about tips to sell you home. Above was Part 1...here goes Part 2!
You've done your best and taken a good look around while cleaning and decluttering. Did you find anything good? I'm sure those old yearbooks were a hoot at the top of the hall closet. Did you remember who the class clown was...memories! 
Now it's time to pick up the phone and call in a Realtor for their opinion and evaluation. How do you choose someone? If you've heard from your last Realtor they might be a good start, if you were happy the first go round. If not, do a little Google search. See who's online and talking about topics that are similar to your home, maybe that person has a slight clue about the market. I would also suggest finding a second or third source. Personally, I commend sellers for taking time to interview and check on a few agents opinions. Listing a house in the Raleigh, NC area can be tricky. You need to make sure you're getting the proper advice.
Mr. or Ms. Realtor shows up and wants to sit down at the table. Here's a tip for you...if they do not ask to see your home, how can they give you a valid price range? I've had several sellers recently tell me that Realtors aren't looking around! WHAT??? That's nuts!
If they do ask to walk around, please let them. Mr. or Ms. Realtor might not be nice but you do need to hear what a fresh set of eye's to "see" your home.
Wait, my phone just rang for a new client meeting...I gotta run, more to follow
