For Those Selling Homes or Property
The most important decision you make through this process will be who you trust to help make it happen. That will determine a lot about how easy or hard it is to set a fair and reasonable price for the market – a price that reflects the true value of the property – and then to sell your home or property at that price.
Before a “For Sale” sign goes up, cut the grass. Remove clutter from the yard and garage, trim hedges, weed gardens and wash the house… Do the things that make it look lived in and loved. That’s how you want a buyer to see your home: loved. Paint the house, if it needs it.
First impressions matter. Sights, sounds, smells… It’s nearly impossible to overcome a bad first impression. The better the first impression, the better the final price will be.
A good realtor is an expert on marketing a home or property. They know what needs to be done and they will be happy to share what they know. Listen to – and trust – their suggestions for getting the best price from your home.
