How to sell you house quickly.
1. Prepare your house
The first step to this is preparation and planning.
Improve curb appeal. Buyers judge the quality of the home by what they can see. If the outside is not appealing, buyers assume the inside probably looks the same and they don't schedule showings.
Decluttering and effectively staging will help prospective buyer to envision their furniture and personals.
Consider some upgrades in the kitchen and bathroom. New cabinets and new sink in the kitchen and shower curtains and light fixtures in the bathroom are inexpensive and can dramatically transform the look of your home. Replace your unmatched old appliances on a new stainless steel appliance suite, it will cost you around $3,500. Small upgrades can have a big impact and give a good return of your investment.
Brighten up the space by using natural and artificial light. When you leave for showings, open curtains and blinds and turn the lights on.
You can make a home inspection and find out the faulty areas that can use a repair. Get them fixed immediately to avoid any further delay.
2. Price matters
The price of the house matters the most when you are about to sell it. Multiple studies show that overpriced properties eventually sell for less than those priced property from the beginning. A property that has been on the market for a long time can lead buyers to believe that there is something wrong with a home, or that the seller is not motivated. While sellers often think they need to "leave room for negotiating", overpricing a home often results in not receiving any offers at all.
A professional listing agent studies market everyday, and should present you with recently sold and comparable homes on the market, so that you can see everything that the buyers can see.
Proper pricing brings more buyers to your home, and allows the opportunity for multiple competing offers, which increase the perceived value of your home and can result in a higher ultimate sale price.
3. Be Gone For Showings
Allow potential buyers to imagine the home as their own. Also some buyers like talking to sellers to learn information which they may use later to their advantage in negotiations.
4. Marketing your property
A professional agent will have a detailed marketing plan that gives your home widespread exposure on the internet. Some agents just put a sign up in front yard, place the property on MLS, and hope someone else sells it. Time have changed. In today's market successful agents rely on social media like Linked In, Facebook, YouTube and virtual tours. Ask to see how your home will be marketed and which sites it will be advertised on when interviewing agents.
A good agent is marketing your home to attract the attention of as many qualified buyers as possible.
