HOME SELLING TIPS & TRICKS
If the Price is Right...
1 Your home sells faster. The faster it sells, the less you spend on carrying costs, mortgage, payments and taxes.
2 Less hassle. If you have moved before, you know the time and energy that goes into showing your home. It’s a lot of work.
3 More exposure. You generate not only more Buyers but Buyers who can afford the property.
4 Realtor excitement. Realtors love to show homes they think they can sell at a fair price.
5 Buyer excitement. Calls from signs and advertisements turn into showings when the price is not a hindrance.
6 Better offers. Buyers are less likely to make a low offer for fear of losing a good opportunity.
7 Sellers make more money. If a home is priced right, the excitement of the market produces better and more offers, which result in higher sale prices. You net more from the sales price, and more in lower carrying costs.
Four Reasons a Property Sells
1 Location
You have no control over the location of your home, but its location helps determine value.
2 Price
You control this. The right price can only be determined by a well-researched Comparative Market Evaluation. As a home Seller, you should get a written market analysis comparing your home to similar properties that have recently sold and those currently on the market.
3 Condition of the Property
You control this also. Your home’s condition is vital to a sale. A clean, well maintained home enjoys a competitive edge over all the other homes on the market. You will set faster and at a higher price if you "stage" your home to enhance its appeal.
4 The Realtor you select
The REALTOR advises you on the market conditions, pricing and staging, recommendations, contracting, financing, title work, appraising and closing activities. Just as you insist on an experienced well-prepare doctor to treat your family, you want a Realtor with a proven track record who does his homework when representing you in the sale of your home. This is the reason so many people choose
