Everyone around you needs to keep their strength up. Friends who are supportive of the process should be there for you. They can help remind you why you’re making this move in the first place. The part of this problem that can be really tricky is kids. If you have kids, then they’re going to find this process very stressful indeed. This goes double (or triple, or even quadruple) if you’re moving far enough for them to have to change schools. So make it a priority to get them to understand and accept what’s happening. It will make the process as a whole go by much easier. Read more about supportive friends at SelfGrowth.com

# Your home as a product

The best way to go about this detachment process is to see your home as a product that you have to sell. After all, that’s what it actually is now, right? Seeing your home as a product actually works out for you in a lot of ways. You start to see things from more of a business and finance perspective. This can help you sell the home faster and at a better price. People who haven’t emotionally detached from their home often put their home on the market for much more than it’s worth. This simply draws out the process. You can read more about real estate pricing strategies at Zillow.com.

Get heavily involved in discussions with real estate agents, and do housing research yourself. All of this will help put you in the right frame of mind.

Awesome tips. I will definitely keep them all in mind should I ever own a home. There is so much to consider that I am sure people don’t think about.
