Need a few tips:
- Pay attention to online marketing. 90+% of home buyers begin their house hunt online, so you need to be sure that your listing is the most attractive one they see! Pictures are a must.
- Remember that curb appeal really is important. You only have one chance to make a first impression. Make it your best! Touch up exterior paint. Keep patios and porches swept. Weed the gardens and cut the grass.
- Have your house in the best shape possible. Be sure repairs have been made to things that are broken, faucets that drip, paint that is scratched, windows that are cracked.
- Make your home available. Don’t make it difficult for agents to get their clients into your home. They have to see it to buy it.
- Price realistically. If you want your house to sell, it has to appeal to a buyer. Part of that appeal has to be the price.
- Know your competition. Ask your Realtor to run the comps for your house. It will give you more confidence when negotiating a contract if you know what you are competing with.
- Delete and De-clutter. Remove family pictures and things that make the home so personal that a buyer might feel they could never live there. Pack away “collections” of things- your child’s artwork, your shot glass collection, things that clutter your counter tops and appliances. Clean the refrigerator. Make the house sparkle.
- Pay attention to closet space. Be sure that when you open a door, nothing falls of the shelf! Try to organize the closet so that it gives the potential buyer a good idea of the space available.
- Listen to your agent. They are the professionals. They have “been there, done that”. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, listen to the answers and make educated decisions.
