 You know its time to move. Again! You need a bigger home! You need a bigger yard! A private drive! A double Attached Garage! A baby's room (congratulations)..
Selling the house is not just a transaction but a complete process. It is much more than getting a listing agreement signed and putting a 'For Sale' sign in your yard.
Catch 22
Should you buy before you sell or sell before you buy?
What if your present house does not sell?
What if you wait and the new house, which was exactly what you were looking for, gets sold to someone else?
It could be overwhelming for a seller to keep track of the whole process. Therefore we suggest you always take help of a Realtor® who is trained to handle these situations exactly.
Preparing Your House For Sale
When selling your home, it's also important to know which repairs and home improvement projects will increase the value of your home and help you get the most interest from homebuyers. Use this checklist to get your house ready for the market.
Price
Best chance for selling your property is within the first 7 weeks. Studies show the longer a property stays on the market, the less the seller will net.
Cleanliness
Buyers are turned off by even the smallest amount of unseemliness or odors, resulting in a loss of thousands to the seller.
Accessibility
Top-Selling Agents will not show your home if both the key and access are not readily available.
Paint and Flooring
Paint is your best improvement investment for getting the greatest return on your money.
Curb Appeal
Your front yard immediately reflects the inside condition of your property to the buyer.
