Do you really want to sell and move house? It sounds like a simple enough question, but many homeowners would struggle with an answer. Here’s what often happens.

Some people will put their home on the market at a ridiculously high price. Not because they expect to sell it for that price, but because they can’t decide if they really want to sell. If a buyer is willing to pay their inflated price, it makes their decision a whole lot easier.

But, isn’t that the wrong way to go about selling a property? If money were the only motivating factor, wouldn’t the seller be better off considering other types of moneymaking schemes?

Most agents would agree - a good deal is usually the result of having a motivated seller and a motivated buyer. Being in a state of indecision can be very frustrating and can cause you needless stress. Besides, it’s not fair on the other parties involved.

If a property is not “seriously” for sale it can be a waste of time for all concerned.

So, before selling your home, try answering these 8 questions. They might save you some stress and help you decide if you “seriously” want to sell.

1. Are you starting to wonder what your home is worth?
YES NO

2. Do you think about selling?
YES NO

3. Is your home now unsuitable for your family requirements?
YES NO

4. Do you want a complete change?
YES NO

5. Would you like to live in a different area?
YES NO

6. Are you unhappy with your neighborhood?
YES NO

7. Are you starting to look around at other properties?
YES NO

8. If you could renovate your home to meet your requirements, would you hesitate to get a loan to do it?
YES NO

How many times did you answer YES? ……………. Now let’s check your score:
0 to 1 YES answers: It looks like you’re pretty happy with your home and there’s not a lot of reason to move at the moment.

2 to 4 YES answers: You may not be ready to sell right at this moment, but you are developing some good reasons to do so in the near future. Now is the time to start planning your next move. Check out http://www.instantsellhome.com

5 to 8 YES answers: You’re really busting to move! You’ve got some very powerful reasons to sell and now is the time for action! Check out http://www.instantsellhome.com It really comes down to how motivated you are to sell. Everyone has a different reason for selling and it is usually one of the first questions a buyer will ask. Your level of motivation will be the driving force as to how quick, how negotiable, or how flexible you are with the sale of your home. © Noel Peebles.
