In just a few weeks, New York will be at its loveliest.

Flowering pear trees, gentle breezes, frisbee matches beginning in the Park. And with the pent up demand for Manhattan apartments, if you’re planning to sell soon, you’d be a fool to miss the Spring market. But then you think, just a few weeks later, as soon as the kids are out of school or your own schedule lightens up, you’re going to be heading to the Hamptons, or Fire Island, or Cape May and you can’t sell when you’re away, can you?

Actually, you can. All it takes is a little pre-sale planning now and you can be relaxing under a beach umbrella while your real estate agent does all of the work.
