Your home’s value will be based on the sale price of similar homes purchased recently at the time you decide to sell, regardless of season. The bottom line is that you decide the asking price of your home, either by yourself or with the help of a real estate professional. How do you decide? What is the best way to get online exposure? Do professional photographs make a difference to online shoppers? What more can be done to market your home? Upcoming chapters answer these questions to help you sell your home for the best possible price.
HOME PREPARATION
Preparing your home for sale is about creating a clean, organized, and inviting space that helps buyers immediately feel comfortable. Start by decluttering and removing personal items so each room looks open and easy to imagine living in. Follow with a deep cleaning and small touch-ups — like fresh paint, working lights, trimmed landscaping, and tidy closets — to show the home has been well cared for. A well-prepared home is not only photographs but also gives buyers confidence, helping your property feel move-in ready from the moment they walk through the door.
