Monday, 21 July 2014 by Cindy Farrell

Here is short list of five things to make sure to do prior to selling your home

28 Union Street Hamilton, MA - North Shore Homes for Sale

Presentation is so important! In order to get the most out of the sale of your home, prepare your house the best you can.

North Shore Real Estate Photos

From the time you have put the property you plan to buy under agreement, completed your inspections and finalized the sale, quite a bit of time has elapsed. It is imperative that you walk through the home prior to closing to make sure everything is in order and in the same condition as when you agreed to buy it. It is helpful to bring a copy of the contract with you in case it’s needed as a reference. Schedule the walk-through as close to the closing date as possible. (more…)
