Here are ESSENTIAL three things you should do as a home seller in today’s shifting market.
First, be realistic with your asking price.
The market where listing your house valued at $400,000 and expecting to get multiple offers at $450,000 is long gone. Sellers with unrealistic expectations on their homes current value can expect their property to sit on the market for quite some time and ultimately lose money. If you want to sell fast and for top dollar, lets’ have a conversation about what that looks like.
Second, consult your realtor on the best plan to maximize the appeal of your home.
In the recent past market, sellers could almost light their house on fire and still get multiple over-asking offers. That just isn’t the case today. In today’s market, it’s extremely beneficial consulting my clients to complete tasks to their home to maximize the appeal to potential buyers. If having fresh painted walls, a well manicured lawn, and a little less clutter could get you more money for home, don’t you think its worth it to do?
And third, work with a realtor who makes themselves available to sell your home.
It was easy for realtors in this recent market to throw a for-sale sign in the front yard, put a lock box on the door, and wait for the offers to roll in. Not anymore. Explosive marketing, proactive buyer-lead generation, and attention to detail are all attributes your realtor needs to have in order to get top dollar for your house.
As the temperature drops and snowflakes start to fall, it’s time to transform your home into a cozy winter haven.
As the days grow shorter and a crisp chill settles in the air, hearts around the world start to beat
