Get your home ready to sell, one step at a time
Decide whether to sell, prioritize repairs, think through financing and taxes with your accountant, and get ready to list, with AI helpers that walk you through each step.
What you can do
- 1
Decide whether to sell
Look at your equity (what your home is worth minus what you owe), your local market, and timing before you commit to listing.
- 2
Prep the home
Focus on the repairs, styling, and yard work that help your home show better, and skip the busywork.
- 3
Money and tax questions
Understand your options, from a home equity line of credit (HELOC) to short-term bridge loans and the tax on your profit, so you know what to ask your accountant.
- 4
Get ready to list
Pull together recent nearby sale prices, the disclosures you’re required to give buyers (known problems, past repairs), and a checklist before your listing goes live.
- 5
Write the listing
Improve your description, tags, and photo order so buyers get it at a glance.

The real feel of a home, not just the numbers
Most listings stop at beds, baths, and recent nearby sale prices. Realestory also captures what a home is really like to live in, the day-to-day details that shape how it feels, so its helpers have more to work with.
- Light, noise, privacy, and accessibility
- Upkeep and what the neighborhood is like
- Details you pick while getting ready to sell
- Results you can edit or reject, and nothing is final until you say so
Who it's for
Realestory is a technology platform, not a real estate brokerage, lender, appraiser, or law firm. What the helpers produce is for information and education only and is not financial, tax, legal, or investment advice. Always talk to a licensed professional before making a real estate, financial, or legal decision. You review and approve every result before anything is finalized.
