Every seller dreams of a quick sale — preferably at or even above their asking price. As market conditions across the country have continued to improve, those dreams aren’t so farfetched. In fact, many sellers have experienced this. While a competitive asking price is key to a quick sale, there are many other elements that come into play.
Competitive Price Point
Listing your home at the most competitive price point will determine how quickly you’ll receive offers. Request your Shorewest, REALTOR® to run a Comparative Market Analysis of your neighborhood. This will tell you what other homes within your community are selling for, and provide details such as square footage, beds, baths, etc.
Curb Appeal
The curb appeal of your home is important, as it sends a message to buyers and determines whether or not they will request a showing. A new front door, seasonal flowers, well-maintained lawn and a new mailbox will all make a different and help your home stand out.
Declutter, Minimize and Stage
Staging your home for sale is all about highlighting its strengths and downplaying its weaknesses. Eliminate mail, papers or books from counter surface. Only keep the basics needed to complete a room. It’s important for your home to be staged and clean. Homebuyers want to walk into a clean, fresh environment that is welcoming and distinctive.
