Selling to downsize

After years in a house, getting it ready to list can be the hardest part. Here are your options.

Update and list it

Can bring a higher price, but means repairs, cleaning, decluttering, staging and months of showings.

List it as-is

Possible, though buyers often ask for repairs or credits after inspection on older homes.

Hold an estate sale first

Helps clear things out, but takes planning and time before you can even list.
