Home Sale Prep Calendar
A week-by-week plan from six weeks out to listing day.
Getting a home ready to sell is mostly a timing problem. There are dozens of small jobs, and they pile up in the last week if they don't have a place on the calendar. The Home Sale Prep Calendar gives every job a week, so you finish ready instead of rushed.
Created by Portland-area broker Cindy Main, it follows the same order I use with my sellers at Eleete Real Estate: understand your home and your numbers, fix what buyers notice, clear and clean, then prepare for photo day, showings, and offers.
Inside the planner:
Your sale at a glance: list date, budget, price range, estimated net, and a six-week overview
Six weekly plans with a focused checklist, a broker tip, and notes space for each week
Big-ticket systems check: roof, HVAC, sewer, oil tank, and radon, so you're inspection-ready
Room-by-room walkthrough to see your home the way a buyer will
Repair priority tracker: Must, Should, Skip, or Bid, with costs
Vendor and contractor sheet
Home features sheet: the details your broker needs to market your home well
Net proceeds worksheet to compare scenarios
Documents to gather, including Oregon disclosure notes
Photo-day prep and the 15-minute showing reset
From offer to closing: reviewing offers, due diligence, possession, and avoiding wire fraud
Perfect for: homeowners planning to list in the next one to three months, busy households selling while living in the home, and anyone who wants to spend prep money only where it counts.
