Selling a townhouse starts with the ownership arrangement, maintenance responsibilities and relevant comparable sales. Use this checklist to prepare a listing consultation with Jamie Fosgate.
Confirm what the owner maintains
Townhouse-style buildings can have different ownership structures. Gather documents describing exterior maintenance, shared areas, parking, pets, rental restrictions, association charges and assessments where applicable. Do not describe the home as low maintenance without explaining which tasks and costs remain with the owner.
Choose appropriate comparable sales
Compare units in the same development where available, then account for condition, size, end-unit position, outdoor space and parking. Nearby detached homes may provide context without being direct comparisons. Ask for the reasoning behind a price range; it is not a guaranteed sale result.
Prepare the property and records
Collect improvement records, service history and available warranties. Verify who is responsible for proposed work and whether association approval is needed. Obtain written vendor scopes and distinguish essential repairs from optional presentation work.
Define the listing service
Agree on photography, listing details, showing arrangements, fees and update expectations. Review offers by price, conditions, timing and estimated proceeds. Ask your attorney to review ownership documents and explain contractual questions.
Discuss your townhouse sale
