Making your home look its best!
When you’re selling your home you’ll want to put forth the very best product. Buyers aren’t coming for just a quick look but for a careful inspection. Keep the exterior neat by painting the trim, clipping the hedges, mowing, edging, and weeding the lawn and you may even want to plant a few flowers.
Inside you’ll want to lighten up the darker corners, perhaps add some fresh paint and put the clutter away to give the rooms an open feeling. Make sure there are no “stale” odors in the home. This can be especially important for remote areas such as a basement or attic. On the day of your open house, you may want to consider baking some cookies or bring in some fragrant fresh flowers. This will add a cheery and pleasant scent to your home. These little things just may help you sell your home a bit more quickly. Check out the Home Staging link to the right for more information.
Researching Real estate Prices
If you’re planning on selling a house, you’ll have to decide what price you’re going to ask for the home. This is one of the most important and difficult decisions you’ll have to make. Buyers select by comparison shopping, so your home will have to have a fair market price in order for it to sell. I am experienced in evaluating real estate prices in Lafayette/West Lafayette and the surrounding areas.
Some of the things to consider when choosing your home price are:
- What is the age & condition of your home.
- Does it need updating.
- What have similar homes in your area sold for.
- Have homes in your area been increasing or decreasing in value.
- Are there a lot of homes for sale in your area?
- By working with a qualified real estate professional, you can ensure that your property will receive the needed exposure to attract interested parties who are willing to make an offer.
