THINKING OF SELLING YOUR HOME? CHECK OUT THESE TIPS!
If you're thinking of selling your home, you'll want to ensure you list your house for the right price in the current market. That is where the help of an agent can be really beneficial. Agents are up to date with the latest market trends and can help get the best price for your home.
When listing your home, you'll want to make sure your home is in good showing condition for home tours. Here are some helpful tips to consider:
Start Packing
Now is the time to sort through the clutter, clean out the basement and garage or put things in storage. Start preparing to show your home. You want buyers to be able to picture themselves living in your home, so it's helpful to remove any family photos or personal items.
Spot Painting
Touch up both interior and exterior paint, as needed.
Carpeting
Clean or replace carpet in areas with heavy wear.
Cleaning
Keep the interior and exterior clean and odor free.
Curb Appeal
Trim any overgrown bushes, mow the lawn and keep it free of leaves or snow. Make sure the front of the home is clean and appealing. This is the first thing potential buyers will see. You don't get a second chance to make a first impression!
Identify potential problems
Once you've completed these steps you may want to hire someone to perform a pre-listing inspection. Buyers will be hiring professional inspectors too; this is your chance to find and address problems before it's time to sell.
Staging
Some buyers have a hard time visualizing the potential of a room. Staging can be helpful in letting buyers see that potential. Staging can be done by a professional company or at the assistance of some agents.
