Selling a home in California can sometimes be a tricky ordeal, especially when market trends are unpredictable. Before making your first move, you should consult with a professional real estate agent and find out whether it is a buyer’s market or a seller’s market.

Selling a home isn’t an impulse decision. It’s not as easy as selling a piece of furniture or an automobile. Most property transactions take weeks or months to complete.

There are times when selling a house may be difficult, but necessary. Many times a home is sold after a parent or other beloved relative has passed away. Others may need to sell their home because of financial difficulties. Sometimes couples decide to sell their house when they are going through a divorce.
