SELLER'S QUESTIONS 
What is the best time to sell my house?
In addition to supply and demand, and other economic factors, the time of year you choose to sell can make a difference in how long it takes to sell your home and in the selling price. Usually the strongest selling season for our area is March through July. You'll have the best results if your house is available to show to prospective buyers continuously until it sells.
How is the list price determined?
It's critical to price your home right in relationship to the current real estate market and to the conditions prevailing in your local marketplace. Your REALTOR® will prepare a comparative market analysis to provide the background data on which to base your list-price decision. Beware of an agent whose opinion of value is considerably higher than the others.
What am I legally obligated to disclose about my home?
According to Section 5.0008 of the Texas Property Code sellers are required to disclose all material facts about their property. This applies to properties for sale by owner or those listed with a REALTOR®. You can view the Texas Property Code online at http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/statutes/pptoc.html.
How do I get my house ready to sell?
A person's first impression, from when they drive-up until they walk through the front door, will often determine their overall decision about buying your home. Making your home look as nice as possible at all times will increase your chances for a quicker sale. Ask your REALTOR® for information regarding staging your home for showings.
What kind of return is there on remodeling jobs?
Before you spend a lot of money to get your home ready to sell, consult your REALTOR® as to what is necessary. If you are thinking about extensive updating, the best return on your investment is remodeling the master bath and kitchen. Often times only a fresh coat of paint, new carpet, and a thorough cleaning and removal of clutter will do the trick. Note: It is best to keep colors neutral.
How can I get more buyers through my house?
Price and location determine the number of showings of your house. If it is priced correctly the greatest number of potential buyers will occur during the first two weeks the house is on the market. After that period, showings will slow down significantly. An overpriced home will typically be shown only to justify the value of correctly priced homes in that market.
How long will it take to sell my home?
