Despite the "doom and gloom" we're bombarded with from the media, it is NOT difficult to sell a home in this market.
There are key factors, however, that are critical for a smooth, successful sale:
1. Your home MUST stand out from the competition either
by condition or price (or both).
2. Your home must show well -- I will hire a professional stager to help prepare your home for
market.
3. Your home must be in good condition -- it makes a lot of sense to have the "big ticket" items like
the roof and furnace inspected before introducing your home to the marketplace. I will make all
arrangements necessary.
4. Your home MUST be competitively priced to reflect today's market values. The more updates
your home has, the quicker it will sell for TOP DOLLAR. New flooring (especially wood),
updated kitchens and bathrooms (especially the master bedroom) new kitchen appliances and
countertops (granite or stone), neutral paint (not white!) are essential to attract a buyer's
attention in today's highly competitive marketplace.
5. You must have a professional marketing expert who knows how to attract buyers. Color photos, virtual tours -- unlimited Internet exposure.and word-of-mouth advertising are critical to your success.
6. Hiring a realtor that UNDERSTANDS the market. It sounds easy -- it isn't.
