Seller - We are almost ready to put our home on the market, can you go ahead and put the sign in the yard and start a list of who wants to see our home?

It is exciting you are getting close to being ready for the market! I know you have worked hard since December de-cluttering, painting and had the floors refinished. I appreciate the Sellers who do all you are doing, and take pride in how your home will show, and so will the buyers!
The Colorado Real Estate Commission and our Local MLS have rules that prohibit us to put a sign out or start advertising before one business day prior to you going into MLS. In fact, the Real Estate Commission had a position about "coming soon" signs a couple years ago, as it became a huge problem in Denver. Many agents were putting signs out, and showing their own buyers, and some listings never became available to the regular public. This is not in the best interest of the Seller when multiple offers are normal.
By having your listing on the MLS and available to all the buyers that could be interested in your home, you will most likely get many showings in the first few days and choose between offers. Proceeding this way, I can ensure you will get the highest and best offer for your home, which translates to the best bottom line for YOU!
