Welcome to the wonderful world of residential real estate sales.

When you decide to sell your house on your own you’re doing the same thing I do everyday; market houses just like yours and show them to prospective buyers.

The first (and most important thing) that you must do is make sure your home is in tip top shape so it will appeal to the broadest base of buyers.

In fact this step is so critically important I strongly recommend you do it first; before you even put your sign in the ground.

Afterwards get a friend or neighbor to walk through your house and ask for an objective opinion; tell him you want the good, the bad, & the ugly.

You see buyers don’t want to have to move into a home and have to do much work, i.e. paint, carpet, minor repairs, etc., and will pay more for a Knoxville home they have to do little work to.

It’s state law in Tennessee that you provide a disclosure of any defects, issues, non-conforming usages, environmental hazards, and several other items, to any potential buyers of any home you’re selling and have lived in at any time during the past 3 years.
