Get Offers

Taking the appropriate steps to market your home is crucial if you’re going the traditional route of showing your home to prospective buyers. These days, some homeowners choose instead to accept a cash offer from a service like Offerpad.

What are the steps in the home-selling process?

While “sight-unseen” offers on homes are on the rise, there’s no getting around the work of staging a home to sell – cleaning, staging, photos, showings. You must accommodate private viewings as well as open house events by not only keeping your home in tip-top shape, but clearing out when someone wants to come by. You also have to do your homework on what homes are selling for in your area, and you may even need to get your home pre-appraised.

All of this is expected when you sell a home. But you can bypass the stress, time, and energy of traditional selling measures when you use Offerpad, which will give you a cash offer for your home.

Frequently asked questions

Homeowners trying to decide on the right price for their home can refer to resources, such as a Comparative Market Analysis report, which provides a comprehensive look at how much similar homes have recently sold for in their neighborhood, along with online home value estimators, and listings and sale prices for similar homes in their area.

No, some homeowners decide to sell their home without an agent – however this means they’re responsible for the home-selling process from creating and posting a listing, marketing their home, preparing for open houses and viewings, and negotiating on price.

Before viewings and open house events, deep clean your home so it’s sparkling clean and stage each room, making sure to put away any personal belongings. Don’t forget about curb appeal – tidy up the outside of your home by mowing the lawn, repainting the fence, and tending to your garden.
