Winning in today’s market starts with a plan, not a guess. ✅
Here’s a quick buyer + seller checklist to keep you on track:
BUYERS
• Get pre-approved so you know your real budget, not just an online estimate.
• List your must-haves vs. nice-to-haves before you tour.
• Walk the neighborhood at different times of day to feel what daily life is like. 👟
SELLERS
• Declutter 1 room at a time; pack away 50–60% of visible items.
• Fix small issues buyers notice first: paint touch-ups, loose handles, burnt-out bulbs.
• Decide in advance: Will you price to spark multiple offers or aim for top dollar and wait?
Save this as your prep roadmap before your next move.
