Create a pre-listing plan for a seller. Property type, condition and timeline: [PROPERTY_TIMELINE]. Budget for preparation: [BUDGET]. Known issues: [ISSUES]. Documents the seller has (title, certificates, manuals): [DOCUMENTS]. Provide a six-week plan: week one declutter and gather documents, week two repairs, week three deep clean and minor updates, week four staging and photography, week five final checks, week six launch. Include a room-by-room checklist, a cost-versus-impact table of improvements without promising returns, a list of documents buyers will ask for, and notes on disclosure obligations for known defects that the seller should confirm with a licensed professional [VERIFY] for [JURISDICTION]. Add a safety and security checklist for showings (valuables, medication, documents) and a message template for agreeing showing times with the seller. Also add a decision framework for spending: rank each improvement by cost, time, and likely effect on how the home presents, using the seller's own priorities, and flag improvements that sometimes backfire, such as bold paint colours or half-finished work. Provide a script for the first meeting with the seller covering their goals, timeline, flexibility on showings, and fears. Add a week-by-week communication plan so that the seller knows what to expect, a guide for pets and children during showings, and a final walkthrough checklist for the day before photography. Include a list of documents that often delay a sale if missing, and a reminder that disclosure duties and the sales process are set locally and must be checked with a licensed professional [VERIFY]. Finally, add a one-page weekly progress report that the seller can read in two minutes: what was done, what is next, spending against the budget, and any decisions needed. This does not replace advice from a licensed agent, lawyer or accountant. Tag all local rules [VERIFY] with [JURISDICTION] and keep claims modest and verifiable.
