5 great tips on what to do if you are thinking about putting your home on the market. These tips will help protect your interests and get you the most amount of money possible for your home.
1. Become a real seller
When you decide to sell your home, you have to detach yourself emotionally from the property. It's no longer a home filled with memories and nostalgia, but an asset in a business transaction that you are trying to sell. Those memories will always be with you, but letting go of your home emotionally is the step you need to take.
2. Depersonalize your home
Removing photos, family heirlooms, and memorabilia is important in creating a neutral feel in your home. You want buyers to picture themselves living in your home, and making your house look like a show-home will help them do just that.
3. First impressions make lasting impressions
This is why your home's curb appeal is so important. Refinish that front door, get your lawn done professionally, and make sure the outside of your home looks just as good as the inside.
4. Be ready to show your home at any time
When selling, you've got to be able to be flexible when it comes to showing your home. Yes, it's a pain and a hassle, but if you really want to sell, you want to make sure you do everything in your power to accommodate potential buyers.
5. Find the right agent
In my opinion, this is the most important step. If you are watching this video, you have already found the right agent. However, you want to make sure you do your due diligence in researching your best choice. I believe that the answers to 2 questions will tell you all you need to know about an agent. The questions are, "What is my home's true value?" and "How much are you going to spend on marketing for my home?" You want somebody who is able to give you that true value without being dishonest, and somebody who takes marketing seriously and knows how important it is in selling your home.
