- KNOW YOUR MARKET…Market conditions change constantly. Check out your competition by attending open houses in your area.
- PRICE YOUR HOME COMPETITIVELY…An overpriced home with get “labeled” quickly, which could be detrimental to the seller.
- LESS IS MORE…Organize and remove all obvious clutter. Clean off kitchen counters, remove pictures from refrigerator, clean out closets and box up things not needed everyday. A buyer will not buy something they cannot see.
- CLEAN YOUR HOUSE…Buyers look at homes with an extremely discriminating eye. They want the best product on the market for their money. Make your home the best product. Freshen up…touch up woodwork/baseboard paint, wipe walls down, clean carpets and light fixtures.
- FRESHEN UP…Touch up woodwork/baseboard paint, wipe walls down, clean carpets and light fixtures.
- MANICURE THE “RUFF” SPOTS…Clean walkways, remove weeds, lay fresh mulch, trim shrubbery and remove all items not intended to be there (bikes, garbage cans, toys, tools, etc…).
- STAGING IS ENGAGING…Stage the interior and exterior of your home. Simple refiguration of furniture or introduction to color can completely change the look and make a room feel more inviting to a buyer.
- MAKE A LIST OF POSITIVE FEATURES…What made you buy your home? Make a list of local positive features (parks, stores, easy access to roadways, neighborhood activities, schools, hospitals, etc…) and a list of updates/special features of the home (sprinkler or alarm system installed, addition added, custom cabinetry, etc…).
- NO DRESS REHEARSAL…Every showing of your home is important to have it looking its best. Please have curtains open, lights on and free of any odors (soft music playing is always nice).
- HIRE A PRO…Only a licensed and experienced professional can effectively market your home. Interview a few agents and choose the one that you feel comfortable with selling your home. They must be knowledgeable of your area to price and market it correctly. Technology is a major player when selling your home…make sure your agent is doing everything and more than you expect.
