Union Home Seller Checklist: From First Call to Closing
Everything to do and gather when you sell a Union home, in order: before listing, on the market, under contract and at closing.
Key takeaways
- Most of a sale’s work happens before listing and between contract and closing.
- Gather documents early: payoff details, tax bill, HOA documents, warranties and repair records.
- Start the Kentucky seller’s disclosure before you list.
- Your listing agent coordinates the steps and deadlines on this list with you.
Before you list
- Talk with a listing agent about price, timing and your next move.
- Talk with your lender if you are buying another home.
- Gather your mortgage details, property tax bill, HOA documents, warranties and repair receipts.
- Start the Kentucky Seller’s Disclosure of Property Condition form.
- Complete repairs, cleaning and decluttering.
- Schedule photography, video and the 3D tour.
On the market
- Keep the home show-ready with a daily reset.
- Plan for pets and family during showings.
- Review showing feedback with your agent at the agreed points.
- Compare offers on net proceeds and terms.
Under contract
- Give access for the inspection and appraisal.
- Respond to the inspection request with your agent.
- Complete agreed repairs with qualified contractors and keep receipts.
- Keep paying the mortgage, utilities and insurance through closing.
- Book movers and plan utility transfers for the closing date.
Closing
- Review the settlement statement with your agent.
- Sign the deed and closing documents, in person or remotely.
- Hand over keys, remotes, codes, manuals and warranties.
- Keep your settlement statement for your taxes, and cancel insurance once the sale records.
Questions sellers ask
What documents do I need to sell my house in Kentucky?
Usually your mortgage and payoff details, property tax bill, any HOA documents, warranties and repair records, and the completed Kentucky Seller’s Disclosure of Property Condition form.
What should I not do when selling a house?
Don’t list before the home and photos are ready, don’t leave the disclosure until there is an offer, and don’t judge offers on price alone.
