Launch your property on the market for sale during April if possible, as this will attract the greatest number of potential buyers and acquire the highest possible offers.
Use the winter period to prepare yourself and your property for selling.
Remember that your home is merely a saleable product made up of bricks and mortar. Try to reduce the emotional attachment you have for it by recognising the capital value it holds and associate that value with your future plans.
Be sure that your personal circumstances are compatible with the stresses involved in selling your home.
Examine your neighbourhood and assess ways in which it might be improved.
Look at other properties for sale in your area and gather information on them, including the asking price.
