No one has a more important role in the homeselling process than you.

Here are some ways your participation can contribute to a successful sale:

• Maintain the property in ready-to-show condition.

• Ensure that the house is easily accessible to real estate professionals (lock box and key).

• Try to be flexible in the scheduling of showing.

• When you are not at home, let me know how you can be reached in case an offer is received.

• If approached directly by a buyer who is not represented by a real estate professional, please contact me. Do not allow them into the property unescorted.

• Remove or lock up valuables, jewelry, cash and prescription medications.

• If possible, do not be present when the property is being shown.

• Securely pen up pets, or take them with you.
• Be cautious about saying anything to buyers or their sales professionals that could weaken your negotiating position, especially regarding price or your urgency to sell.

• Collect the business cards of real estate professionals who preview and show your home, and pass them on to me.

• Let me know of any change in the property’s condition that would need to be disclosed to potential buyers.

• Be available to review with me the list price and condition of your property if it has not sold in a reasonable period of time.

• Feel free to contact me at any time with questions or concerns.
