Are you planning to shift to a new home this season? There are several reasons out of which one might shift to a new house. It can be a change of job, growing family, and lifestyle change. However, if you need to sell your home first before looking for a new house here are some basic steps that you need to cover before selling your house:

Choose an experienced real estate agent: An experienced real estate agent is your best asset in a real estate transaction. You need to invest some time in looking for an expert agent for your house. You can start your search by consulting with your friends and family. Make sure to hire a tech-savvy agent because 95 percent of the buyers choose internet for purchasing a property. Prepare a list of agents and interview them for the marketing methods and listing procedures. Find out the knowledge they have about your neighborhood and ask them about the right asking price for your property.
Prepare a Master plan: If you are planning to shift to a new house after selling your current home, it is probably best to start looking for a new house. You need to do proper research before choosing a neighborhood. Start with the mortgage process, it is best to be pre-approved before looking for a new house. You have ample time to choose among different finance options and discuss your options in detail. One of the best things is to have a pre-approval for your house and secure financing.
Prepare your home for sale: If you are planning to complete some small projects or do minor repairs, this is the best time for these upgrades. It is difficult for homeowners to find out any problems with the appearance of the house and make improvements accordingly. You can consider an outsider’s perspective for making these upgrades. Start with the exterior of your house and de-clutter your house. You might have to clean dusty windows and make sure that your house looks appealing. Inspect all the major equipments including water heater, furnace, and chimney of your house. You can get estimates from local contractors. These efforts will ensure that your home will be ready for any home inspections and you would be able to respond to multiple offers. Selling your house is an overwhelming process and it is important to have an active real estate agent in your team.
