02
Set the right price
Determine an appropriate listing price by researching the local market and consulting with areal estate agent. They will analyze comparable sales in your area to help you set a competitive and realistic price.

Partner with a reputable real
estate agent who specializes in
your local market. They will
provide valuable guidance,
market your home effectively, and
negotiate on your behalf.

Market your home
Collaborate with your agent to
develop a comprehensive marketing
strategy. This may include
professional photography, virtual
tours, online listings, open houses,
and advertising both online and
offline.
05
Negotiate offers
When potential buyers submit offers,
your agent will help you evaluate
them, negotiate terms, and reach an
agreement. Be prepared to negotiate
on price, contingencies, and closing
dates.

Complete required disclosures
In Tennessee, sellers are legally
obligated to disclose certain
information about the property’s
condition, including known defects or

disclosure requirements to avoid
legal issues down the line.

Conduct a home inspection
After accepting an offer, the buyer
may request a home inspection. Be
prepared for this process, as any
issues discovered may affect the
negotiation or require repairs.

buyer’s agent, and a closing attorney
or title company to navigate the
closing process. Provide any
necessary documentation, review
contracts, and address any
outstanding issues.
09
Prepare for the closing
Before the closing date, ensure all
necessary repairs are completed,
utilities will be transferred, and any
personal belongings are removed
from the property. Prepare to pay
closing costs and settle any
outstanding mortgage or liens.

Close the sale
Attend the closing meeting with all
parties involved, including the buyer,
their agent, the closing attorney, and
possibly a lender. Review and sign all
required documents, transfer
