Is this sentence composed properly?

"¿Quieres tú vender la casa?"

The sentence is meaning to ask, "Do you want to sell the house?"

Where in the sentence, is "tú" to be placed?

¿Quieres vender la casa? is more natural. No need to use the pronoun tú because the conjugated verb querer (quieres) already implies that it is tú who is doing the action of the verb.

"¿Quieres tú vender la casa?"

In this sentence is giving emphasis on you and this in conjunction with the sentence structure would mean "Are you the one who wants to sell the house?" So if this is what you want to say, then it´s correct.

Hey,

The tú can be placed before the quieres. "¿Tú quieres vender la casa?"
