Listing, showing and selling a beloved home can be an emotional experience. Realtor Elizabeth Johnstone offers advice on mentally preparing yourself for the process and “the next chapter:”

“Be compassionate with yourself during this time of change. Imagine receiving and accepting an offer, to ensure you are 100% committed. Choose a trusted Realtor and closing attorney for the smoothest transition. Take a photograph or painting of your home with you to your new home.”
