What legal papers should I have before putting my home on the market?
Real estate law requires many documents. Before you sell your home, make sure you have these documents on hand:
- a plat or survey of your property
- either a deed or your mortgage agreement
- the most recent real estate tax bill
- condominium documents, if your home is a condominium
- homeowner association rules and fee schedule (if applicable)
