A Sale Is a Sequence
The process usually moves from valuation to preparation, buyer strategy, marketing or private outreach, offers, due diligence, escrow, and closing. The order matters because weak preparation can create pricing pressure later.
What Can Slow a Sale
Unclear rents, incomplete expenses, deferred maintenance, tenant documentation issues, unrealistic pricing, and uncertainty around rent control can all reduce buyer confidence. Fix what can be fixed before buyers start underwriting.
When Don Should Be Called
Call before you need to sell. That leaves time to review value, prepare documents, understand the buyer pool, and decide whether a public or quiet process gives the better shot at your goal.
