The questions I should ask my Estate agent before selling my house?

Lake Properties

When selling your house, asking your estate agent the right questions can help you make informed decisions and streamline the process. Here’s an illustration of some key questions to ask:

1. What’s the current market value of my property?

Ask for a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) to understand your home’s estimated value based on recent local sales.



2. What fees will I need to pay?

Get clarity on the agent’s commission and any other fees, like marketing or administrative costs, so there are no surprises.



3. How will you market my property?

Learn about their marketing strategy, including online listings, social media, professional photos, open houses, and other advertising methods.



4. How long is the typical sale time in this area?

This gives you an idea of the timeline and helps manage expectations.


5.Clarify who will show your property to potential buyers and the process for scheduling viewings.



6. What should I do to prepare my home for sale?

Ask if any improvements or staging would increase appeal or value. Sometimes small changes can make a big difference.



7. Do you have potential buyers for properties like mine?

Experienced agents may have a list of prospective buyers, which could speed up the sale.



8. What’s your strategy if my property doesn’t sell quickly?

Find out if they’ll change the marketing strategy, adjust the price, or implement other tactics if the house lingers on the market.



9. How often will you update me on progress?

Determine how often you’ll be in contact and through what means (calls, emails, or meetings) for updates on viewings and offers.



10. What’s the process once we receive an offer?

Understand the next steps after receiving an offer, including negotiation, legal considerations, and paperwork.




These questions will help ensure that your agent is proactive, transparent, and prepared to help you achieve a smooth and successful sale.
