You spent a great deal of time and effort to find the right one, saved up for your down payment and furniture, and created many memories.
People generally have trouble keeping their emotions in check when it comes time to say goodbye. Once you decide to sell your home, start thinking of yourself as a businessperson and salesperson rather than just the homeowner.
Also, try to remember how you felt when you were shopping for that home. Most buyers will also be in an emotional state.
So does it pay to hire an agent? A good agent generally has your best interests at heart. They will help you set a fair and competitive selling price for your home, increasing your odds of a quick sale. An agent can also help tone down the emotion of the process by interacting with potential buyers and eliminating tire kickers who only want to look at your property but have no intention of making an offer.
Your agent will also have more experience negotiating home sales, helping you get more money than you could on your own. And if any problems crop up during the process—and they commonly do—an experienced professional will be there to handle them for you. Finally, agents are familiar with all the paperwork and pitfalls involved in real estate transactions and can help make sure the process goes smoothly. After reading all this, should you really hire an agent?
Only you can decide. There are people who sell their own homes successfully. Remember the comparative market analysis you or your agent did when you bought your home to determine a fair offering price? Buyers will do this for your home, too, so as a seller you should be one step ahead of them.

This may work, allowing the buyer to feel like they are getting good value while allowing you to get the amount of money you need from the sale. Believe it or not, there really is a right time to sell during the year. Winter, especially around the holidays, is typically a slow time of year for home sales. People are busy with social engagements, and the cold weather across much of the country makes it more appealing just to stay home.
Because fewer buyers are likely to be looking, it may take longer to sell your home, and you may not get as much money. You may be better off waiting. Barring any mitigating circumstances that may force you to sell during the winter or holidays, consider listing when the weather begins to warm up.
At the same time, there are so many poor photos of homes for sale that if you do a good job, it will set your listing apart and help generate extra interest. Good photos should be crisp and clear and taken during the day when there is plenty of natural light available. Consider using a wide-angle lens if possible—this allows you to give potential buyers a better idea of what entire rooms look like.
Ideally, hire a professional real estate photographer to get top quality results instead of just letting your agent take snapshots on a phone. Consider adding a video tour or degree view to further enhance your listing. This can be easily done with any smartphone. You can certainly entice more potential buyers into walking through your doors for showings.
You may even get more offers if you give them an introductory walk-through of your property. Your lender may have required you to acquire a homeowners insurance policy. You also want to make sure there are no obvious hazards at the property or that you take steps to mitigate them keeping the children of potential buyers away from your pool and getting your dog out of the house during showings, for example.
