1.- Dry yourself in the morning. Go to the bathroom, and reflected in the mirror, looking into your eyes, say to yourself: "Vaig a vendre el meu pis". Say it with conviction and daring, don't let it shake your head! When you get out of the bath, don't look guilty. Your girlfriend, mother or husband may suspect that you've been doing something else...

2.- Contracts one, and only one, real estate agency. It is false that working with several agencies increases your sales options, in the same way that no sensible man would accept that the woman he loves is dating different men at the same time until one of them gives him a baby, right? Escull una bona agènciaone that is committed to you (and you to it) and that invests money and resources in la venta del teu pis.

3.- Assume at least three things:
a) If you bought your flat in 2004 or later, the most likely outcome is that you will come in below the price you paid at the time.
b) Even if you go on sale at a market price, it is unlikely that you will come back within six months.
c) Maybe Barça won't win the league this year.

Això és tot. Seriously.
