Living in your home while you’re trying to sell can be a tough balancing act. We’ve got some tips to share that will make this situation as stress-free as possible for you.
If your home is listed in this type of market, especially with us, it’s going to sell quick. The first thing you should do is pack up the things from the house that you don’t need. Get rid of the junk and store the rest.
Next, let’s get the home squeaky-clean for potential buyers. You may not be able to come home during the morning or afternoon to fix small things, so make sure it looks as presentable as possible when you leave in the morning.

It’s also a good idea to maintain privacy and safety when listing your home. Anything with sensitive information should be tucked away in a safe place. Here at the Butler Team, we make sure all of our buyers are screened and pre-qualified before they enter the home. We don’t want just anyone walking in.
Finally, let’s get the kids involved. Moving can be tough, so keep them engaged by involving them in the home search process and having them help keep your current home clean.
If you have any questions for us, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you.
