Sharon:
An additional alternative, is allowing a service, such as Mansion Minders (here in the Dallas Fort Worth area) to place a qualified tenant in your home while it is being listed for sale. The tenants are screened and are expected to keep the property in showing condition at all times and are required to allow any and all showings by agents. When the home sells, the tenant moves on to another home that is on the market and leaves your home in move in condition.
Many tenants who do that are those that have sold their own homes, and are building a home, or are relocating.
It is a great benefit for all.
