The Atlanta Home Seller Checklist

Everything you need to prep your home for sale โ€” practical, step-by-step guidance from The Olusa Group, Keller Williams Midtown.

๐Ÿงน

Declutter & Depersonalize

  • Pack away excess furniture and personal items so rooms feel spacious and open.
  • Remove family photos, awards, and personal collections so buyers can picture themselves living there.
  • Clear countertops and closets โ€” buyers open them. Less inside makes storage feel ample.
๐Ÿ”จ

Minor Repairs That Pay Off

  • Fix leaky faucets, squeaky doors, and loose cabinet hardware.
  • Patch nail holes and touch up scuffed or chipped paint.
  • Replace burnt-out bulbs with bright, matching bulbs throughout.
  • Refresh cracked caulking around tubs, sinks, and showers.
โœจ

Deep Cleaning

  • Have carpets and hard floors professionally cleaned.
  • Scrub kitchens and bathrooms until they shine โ€” buyers notice these rooms first.
  • Clean windows inside and out to maximize natural light.
  • Don't forget baseboards, blinds, and ceiling fans.
๐ŸŒณ

Curb Appeal Quick Wins

  • Mow, edge, and freshen mulch in the front beds.
  • Power-wash the driveway, porch, and siding.
  • Paint or polish the front door and add a clean welcome mat.
  • Make sure house numbers are visible and the mailbox looks tidy.
๐Ÿ“„

Gather Documents Ahead of Time

  • Seller's property disclosure statement.
  • HOA or condo association documents โ€” bylaws, fees, rules, and contact info.
  • Warranties, manuals, and receipts for recent repairs or appliances.
  • Recent utility bills (buyers often ask for monthly averages).
  • Property survey or plat map, if you have one.
๐Ÿ”‘

Get a Pre-Listing Walkthrough

  • Have your agent walk through before listing to flag what matters most.
  • Decide together what to fix, what to leave, and how to price.
  • Set a timeline for photos, showings, and going live on the market.
