If you’re thinking about selling in the spring, don’t wait until the new year to
start planning. In fact, you’ll save yourself a lot of work and get ahead of the
game if you start planning now.
What’s that old saying? The early bird gets the worm! In this case, by starting
the process this month, you’ll be in excellent shape when you’re ready to list in
the spring.
Here are just a few examples of what you can do in December to get the
process started:
- Walk your property and note any maintenance issues that need attention.
- Decide which items to stow or sell to declutter your home.
- Determine what improvements you’ll need to make in order for your home
to look great to buyers (i.e. painting.)
- Find out approximately how much your property will likely sell for in the
spring market.
- Clarify the kind of new home you’d like to move into, including ideal
neighbourhoods.
- Look into your financing options, so you’ll know the price range you’ll be
shopping within.
- Connect with any professionals you may need, such as contractors, a
mover, and a real estate lawyer.
- Take advantage of any December shopping deals for products you may
need, such as home improvement project materials, packing supplies, etc.

As you can see, the more prepared you are this month, the more stress-free
and successful the home selling process will be for you in the spring.
