How to Sell Your House: 5 Things to Do Before You Sell Your Home In Beautiful Chico, California

  1. House for SaleGet estimates from a reliable repair person on items that need to be replaced soon, a roof or worn carpeting, for example. In this way, buyers will have a better sense of how much these needed repairs will affect their costs.
     
  2. Have a termite inspection to prove to buyers that the property is not infested.  With our moist and rich soil, Chico has termites.
     
  3. Get a pre-sale home inspection so you'll be able to make repairs before buyers become concerned and cancel a contract. Yes, yes.
     
  4. Gather together warranties and guarantees on the furnace, appliances, and other items that will remain with the house.
     
  5. Fill out a disclosure form provided by your Chico realtor. Take the time to be sure that you don't forget problems, however minor, that might create liability for you after the sale.
