When selling a home, make sure you complete your to-do list!

Selling a home is work and will require effort on your part. If you don’t want to put forth any effort, perhaps you wantto think twice about selling your home. Your home’s preparation of cleaning & fixing those little things you’ve beenmeaning to do, to being absent for home showings, your life like you had once known it as being pretty muchuninterrupted will now have to come to a halt. While you’re getting your groove on to sell a home, your actual daily,life groove will be thrown to the curb.

Be Prepared to Get a List ofThings to Do

Groundwork is a must. You’ll likelyhave some homework from yourAgent who will let you know whatneeds to be done to get your homeready to sell. When your Agenttours your home, he/she will noticewhat needs to be done to get yourhome in selling condition if you wantto succeed at getting top dollar foryour home sale. Recommendationswill be made to get your home readyand at a minimum to do thefollowing:

1. clean until all the dirt, grime andsmells are gone

2. unclutter all rooms, counters,tabletops, closets andcupboards

3. arrange any room’s furniture ina pleasing, flowing manner

4. brighten rooms having all lightbulbs illuminated

5. highlight the rooms with theirintended purpose and not ahodge podge of what might be

6. pack up excess stuff and moveit out

7. have outside lawn andlandscaping nicely manicured.

8. clean front door to have it freeof dirt and insect webs

9. hide the trash and recycle cans

10. repair and replace rotted woodnear roof line or any door frames

11. start this and I’m sure we can add a few more things to do, but this is a good starting place

Get in the groove when selling a home and watch the buyer’s flow in!

Having a to do list and not completing it will drops thousands of dollars from the price of your home sale. Get it done.No excuses. If you’re not the repairing type then hire the appropriate support.

Price Your Home to Sell

Have an analysis of your home’s local Real Estate market completed by your Real Estate Agent. This includesreviewing “comparable” recent nearby home sales, pending home sales and active homes for sale that have beenthoroughly analyzed and how they compare to the home you’re selling. It’s also important that whenever possible,that the home’s price is positioned within a price point that will increase its chances for selling. Also important for theactual list price is to determine the inventory level of homes in your area and how long it’s taking for homes to sell inyour area. Evaluating all of these factors can provide you with an attractive list price that can win the attention ofBuyers, even driving up the final sale’s price where you’re having Buyers competing for your home.

Make Everything About Your Home Stand Out

A home’s appeal is highest at the onset of when it is first listed for sale. By the time you’ve gotten to this point youknow what is required of a home Seller to get in the groove. If you’ve followed the advice above, your home willcertainly stand out from the many other listings that are almost lifeless and run of the mill. Now is not the time toblend in.

Keep Your Home in Daily Tip TopShape

On your way out the door and youremember that you left your dirtydishes in the Kitchen sink. Oh well,you think, you’ll be better with ittomorrow. WAIT. TURN AROUND.GO BACK. Even if you have to belate to the office, clean up yourdishes. Never leave you homemessy and unkept. Never whenselling your home.

Be Keenly Aware of Buyer’sNeeds

This requires setting your home upfor the Buyer to imagine themselvesliving there. Once you decide to sellyour home, the home you onceknew as your home, must nowbecome a neutralized home;neutralized of your home’s familycollections, memories andtreasures. Don’t make it difficult for aBuyer to fancy themselves living inyour home.

What does this all boil down to?
