10 Tips for a Quick and Profitable Home Sale
Selling your home can be a daunting task, but with the right strategies in place, you can streamline the process and maximize your profits. In this blog post, we'll share our top 10 tips for selling your home quickly and profitably, helping you achieve your real estate goals with ease. 1. Enhance curb appeal to make a great first impression If potential buyers aren’t interested and attracted to the outside of your home, they’re definitely not going to want to walk inside and see more. We made a separate video expanding a bit more on this and gave 3 easy tips to boost your curb at an affordable price. You can watch the video and read the blog post here for more information. 2. Declutter and depersonalize to help buyers envision themselves in the space We understand that you have made your home to your liking while you lived in it and have possibly filled it with photos of friends and family, however, the goal at the end of the day is to sell your home. Declutter and simplify as much as you can, and swap out the pictures in your photo frames for some stock images of nature or take them down all together. 3. Price your home strategically to attract the right buyers You want to price your home at that “Goldilocks” price so that it is enticing enough to buyers making them not want to miss out. As real estate professionals, we will recommend a price range that we think is fair for what the property is and what the market is going for considering comparable sales in your area. 4. Work with a skilled real estate agent to navigate the selling process At Zealty Home Advisors, we have MANY years of combined real estate experience with buying and selling so they are many of us to choose to work with. Whether you’re selling your first home or your third home, we got you covered and are here for you to receive the best service, experience, and overall outcome of the whole transaction. 5. Highlight your home's best features through professional staging and photography When you work with us, professional photography is included in our services and we have an eye for arranging furniture or staging your home to its highest potential to attract the most buyers. If you already moved out of the home and are selling it vacant, we can virtually stage your home to show buyers what it could look like with furniture and decor so they can envision themselves living in the space. 6. Be flexible with showings to accommodate potential buyers' schedules We understand that you have things to do during the day and can’t open up your entire schedule to be able to show your house. However, opening up your mornings and evenings can help get more traffic in your home to get it sold. Another option to consider, you can allow us to show your home when you are not there to open up the availability even more. 7. Consider making small upgrades or repairs to increase perceived value Adding a fresh coat of paint to bedrooms and bathrooms, upgrading kitchen and bathroom sink faucets, and upgrading light fixtures in the dining and living room areas are just a few small things to boost the perceived value of your home. 8. Create a comprehensive marketing plan to reach a wide audience of buyers When you list your home with us, we create a customized marketing plan that best aligns with your needs and goals of your home sale. We hire a professional photographer to get pictures of the inside and outside of your home and we create a write up of your home and highlight it’s best features. We then post those images and the home description on the MLS and our website where it can be viewed by thousands of potential buyers including a network of professional real estate contacts. After it’s listed, we include the link to your home in our email campaigns and also post it to our social media. 9. Be prepared for negotiations and consider all offers carefully Keeping your needs and goals in mind, it is also important to consider your buyers and the offers they may bring to the table. Some may want to close sooner or later, some may want to pay a lower price than what you’re asking for, or some may even pay what you’re asking but may want to you cover more closing costs. There are many different types of offers that can be made, but it is important to consider that the top dollar offer may not always be the best one. 10. Stay organized and informed throughout the selling process to minimize stress As your listing agent, we are here for YOU and want to make the process as stress-free and smooth as possible. If offers come in on your home or if there are concerns that come from the home inspector, we are here to help guide you and advise you on what the best options are to get the conflict solved or how you should best prioritize your offers as they come in.
