Author Ilona Bray won the first place Gold Award in the Robert Bruss competition for her book: Selling Your House: Nolo's Essential Guide, published by NOLO. The awards recognize excellence in books published in 2015 covering the broad field of real estate. NAREE's (National Association of Real Estate Editors) judges commented that Bray's book is a clear, thorough handbook on selling a house and judges noted the helpful tips served as good preparation for those who may not have been in the market for a while. With the help of real estate agents and home sellers who contributed stories and tips, Bray presents the big picture: key steps for selling your home. She recommends reviewing these steps before diving into the process of learning what to expect and seeing how the different pieces fit together. The book covers getting your property ready for sale, selecting a real estate agent, lawyer, and accountant, learning about disclosure laws, marketing tools, and your house sale contract, among other things.
