If you want to sell in 2026, then now is a great time to set yourself up for success.
Regardless of the state of your home, there will more than likely be a number of small repairs or decluttering required before listing, and the more time given, the BETTER your house will look by your desired listing date.
It's important to conduct necessary repairs and aesthetic touch-ups as it goes a long way in the current market we're seeing. Renovation is always an option, but not usually necessary with the right preparations. The best part about considering what to do now is that it leaves plenty of time, and in turn less stress, when you go to accomplish those "ready-to-list" goals.
The team here at MVP has put together a Home Preparation Checklist for those getting ready for sale. If that doesn't give enough guidance on the particulars of your specific home, please feel free to reach out so we can get you connected with an agent!
