Now that your house is ready, it's time to put it up for sale and market it. Establishing a marketing strategy is a must. You will have to decide how you want to get the word out there that your house is for sale. There are many different ways to advertise your property. A yard sign, flyers, and direct marketing are just a few of the many options you have. The path you choose will depend on the money you have to invest, which program will bring the most potential buyers, and your comfort and experience level with each of your options. If you are in a buyer's market you will have to be extra careful when choosing a plan. You don't want your house to sit with no one showing interest. The first 3-6 weeks should be the busiest. If you don't get any traffic within that time frame, you may want to reconsider your approach.

Your agent can save you time and money by exposing your house to the most potential buyers possible. Your agent will present to you the best marketing plan that will have the highest possibility of bringing not only the most buyers, but the most qualified buyers, to your doorstep.
