30/60/90/120 day value ranges. The faster you want to sell...the lower price. Higher price than it's comparables may take more time and a specific buyer.
Selling and the Real Estate Agent?
Presume the Real Estate Agent works for the buyer's interest. In most States, A Real Estate Agent can fairly work both sides of a Real Estate transaction, but some states the agent must represent only the Buyer.

Sellers...Is this the right place to sell?
Hizzil is a platform for sellers who can perform the selling duties included in the Seller's Checklist...such as preparing the home to be sold, setting and confirming showings and negotiating the contract details.
What is an appraisal?
The buyer's lender will order an appraisal...or a 3rd party fair market value. The lender will NOT loan above this appraisal value.
What is an "As-Is" contract?
"AS-IS" to a seller is not always As-Is. If your buyer is financing, the lender and insurance will REQUIRE specific conditions are met. For Example, most insurance companies will not insure a home with a roof over 20 years. IF the seller wants the property to qualify for financing, then the roof will have to be replaced prior to sale. CASH buyers will be the only true "As-Is" sale for there are no contingencies placed by 3rd parties.
Know your Buyer Pool
Prepare your home by buyer type. If the primary buyer for your property is an FHA buyer, then it is best to have functionality items such as roof, A/C and appliances working. If you have a luxury buyer, it may be best to upgrade cosmetic items and fixtures.
