When selling  a home, most people try to make their house more attractive than other homes on the market.But did you know your deal must also be more attractive?

Here are 4 things that can really set you apart.

1. If Your’e Selling a Home, use Seller Financing.
You could put some funds in escrow to cover a few months of the buyer’s payments.
Offer to pay the buyer’s closing costs.
Say that you will pay all title and escrow fees.
Pay for discount points so the buyer gets a lower interest rate. This becomes a tax deduction for you.

2. If Your’e Selling a Home, Buy a Home Warranty.
State that you will pay for a Home Warranty in the property description. This limits the buyer’s upkeep costs.

3. If Your’e Selling a Home, Get a Pre Sale Inspection.
By elliminating  another fee for the buyers, you also elliminate their fears about unseen problems with the home.
Be sure to display the pre listing inspection report for all prospective buyers.

4. If Your’e Selling a Home, Offer a Decorating Allowance.
If your home needs updating, consider setting funds aside so the new owner can choose colors. Either put the money in an escrow account, or give cash to the buyers at closing.

YES, making your deal more attractive
is simple and relatively inexpensive.

A proven way to beat the competition!
