How desperate are you to sell your home?
Both the real estate agent and the homebuyer know that your level of motivation will be the driving force in the way you manage your house sale. They will want you to reveal how urgent the deal is and how negotiable and flexible you are with the sale of your property.
Are you desperate and willing to sell your home at any price? Have you already made a conditional offer on another house? Are you relocating to start a new job in a new town? Have your family status changed? Those are the types of questions that can reveal how motivated (or desperate) you are when you want to sell your home. They can have a big influence on the final outcome in terms of the conditions of sale and the negotiated price for your property.
That's why it is really important to decide exactly what you are going to tell a real estate agent or a potential homebuyer when you put your home on the market. Decide exactly how motivated you are to sell, before you put your property on the market. Think of how you are going to answer each and every question before they gets asked.

Home for sale: Be clear on why you are selling
If you've decided to sell your house or your property, chances are you're caught up in a horde of emotions.
You may be looking forward to trading up to your new dream home or facing the uncertainty of a major relocation to another town.
You may hesitate to leave a big part of your memories behind or keen to start a new adventure.
Whatever tumultuous emotions you're experiencing right now, you need to be clear on exactly what's motivating you to sell your home.

Is your home "seriously" for sale?
Do you really want to sell and shift house? It sounds like a simple enough question, but many homeowners would fight with an answer. Here's what often happens.
Some people will put their house on the market at a absurdly high price. Not because they expect to sell it for that amount, but because they can't decide if they really want to sell. If a buyer is willing to pay their overblown price, it makes their decision a whole lot easier.
But, isn't that the incorrect way to go about selling a home? If money were the only motivating factor, wouldn't the seller be better off considering other types of moneymaking schemes?
If a home is not "seriously" for sale it can be a waste of time for all concerned.
