1. Understand the property
Review the home, its condition, documented improvements and the features that can be verified and presented clearly.
Selling Your Home with Marisa Lucente
A strong sale plan starts before the listing goes live. I help sellers organize preparation, pricing, presentation, showings and offer decisions around the property and the timing of the move. My service area includes the GTA, York Region and Simcoe County.
A practical home selling process
2. Prepare before launch
Prioritize decluttering, repairs, cleaning, staging or other presentation work based on what will improve the buyer experience.
3. Position the price
Compare relevant recent sales and active competition. Pricing is a property-specific strategy, not a calculation from a city-wide average.
4. Manage showings and offers
Organize access, feedback and offer review. Compare price together with conditions, deposit, closing date and other terms.
5. Coordinate closing
Once the agreement is firm, keep lawyer requirements, moving arrangements and any next purchase connected to the closing timeline.
Where is the property?
Use the local guides below for location-specific planning, then discuss the property itself for a relevant sale strategy.
Questions sellers often ask
What should I fix before listing?
Start with safety, obvious maintenance and presentation. The right list depends on the property; not every renovation returns its cost or helps the sale.
How is the listing price chosen?
We compare relevant recent sales, active competition, the property’s condition and features, and the strategy for how buyers will encounter the listing.
Should I buy before I sell?
That depends on finances, risk tolerance, the current market and your housing needs. If both transactions are required, we can map the timing and discuss the implications before you commit.
