Put your house's best face forward. This is crucial to getting your asking price or selling quickly. Helping a home show better does not take a lot of money.

• Do yard work. Sweep the sidewalk, mow the lawn, prune the bushes, weed the garden and clean debris from the yard.
• Check the exterior. Clean the windows (both inside and out) and make sure the paint is not chipped or flaking.
• Make sure that the doorbell works.
• Clean and spruce up all rooms, furnishings, floors, walls and ceilings. It is especially important that the bathroom and kitchen are spotless.
• Organize closets.
• De-clutter and de-personalize. A cluttered house appears smaller than it is. Your personal knickknacks and family photos are great to have around, but you want the buyer to imagine  the home is their own. Pack up the clutter and your personal items for your next home.
• Make sure the basic appliances and fixtures work. Get rid of leaky faucets and frayed cords.
• Make sure the house smells good: from an apple pie, cookies baking or spaghetti sauce simmering on the stove. Hide the kitty litter.
• Add flowers. Put vases of fresh flowers throughout the house.
• Play music. Having pleasant background music playing in the background also will help set your stage.Add a description about this item

If you want to get top dollar for your property, make all minor repairs and selected major repairs before going on the market. Nearly all purchase contracts include an inspection clause – a buyer contingency that allows a buyer to back out if numerous defects are found or to negotiate their repair costs.

The trick is not to overspend on pre-sale repairs. On the other hand, making such repairs may be the only way to sell your house in a down market.

In most states, the seller is obligated to disclose information about the home, but obligations to disclose information about a property vary.

Under the strictest laws, you and your agent, if you have one, are required to disclose all facts materially affecting the value or desirability of the property, which are known or accessible only to you. This might include:

• Homeowners association dues
• Whether or not work done on the house meets local building codes and permits requirements
• The presence of any neighborhood nuisances or noises which a prospective buyer might not notice.
• Any restrictions on the use of the property, such as zoning ordinances or association rules
