How feasible is it to sell a plane with an expiring annual?

I'm preparing to sell my plane, an IFR-equipped, low-time, C150E, but the annual expires at the end of this month.

What's the best course of action? I know that if I was buying a plane, I would love it if the annual was just expiring - I'd just to a full annual as a pre-buy inspection on the condition that the seller paid for anything non-airworthy. I also know that a lot of people prefer to sell planes with fresh annuals.

What's the best approach here? And what happens if the annual expires? Will that hurt my chances of selling the plane?
