Make the Most of Your Home Sale.

Posted On: September 22nd, 2018 3:17PM

When representing sellers, I have learned from years of experience the key elements that can make, or break, a residential home sale. I serve my clients with due diligence, strong negotiating skills when needed, and constant communication throughout.

Let me share with you a few ways to make the most of your home sale.

Planning and Discussion

Don’t wait till the last second to start planning your sale. When you first think about it, reach out to a pro you can ask questions of. I use this stage for considering financial and lifestyle decisions, as well as setting a timetable with my clients.  You won’t believe what a stress reliever it is to have a solid plan in place before your ‘for sale’ sign is in the yard.

Pricing and Terms

During the planning stage the condition of your home is reviewed, which will determine the asking price. There are many more factors involved, which I will go over with you.

 Along with the price, a talk about the terms (length of time to close, whether you will accept contingencies, the preferred type of loan your buyer will have, and so much more) should be conducted.

Stage to Impress

Important things to do while your home is on the market:

  • Have flexible viewing times to accommodate buyers.
  • Reduce clutter to make your home look spacious. 
  • Put away personal items such as photographs and keep decorative ornaments to a minimum.
  • Make the exterior shine and the front entrance warm and welcoming.
  • Brighten the interior by adding color, open up blinds and curtains. 
  • Keep the temperature in your home at a comfortable level.

These are just highlights. There are many more details that make up a smooth and profitable home sale. My client-care plan and marketing approach are proven, thorough, and lead to success. I look forward to a face-to-face meeting when you are ready to transition out of your home. Contact me in the early stage, when you first think about selling!
