• Social media exposure • Virtual home staging (if your home is empty) • Professional Marketing and Home Brochures
Selling a home quickly and for more money takes work. Ensure the home is properly staged and ready to sell. Take advantage of every tool to achieve results. Work with a real estate agent who not only knows the value of good photography, but who can also provide an aggressive internet marketing campaign to bring ready buyers to your listing.
BEWARE! DON’T OVER IMPROVE!
Preparing your home for sale doesn’t need to be expensive or time-consuming as long as you keep up with normal maintenance. In the event you do not have the time to do the cleaning or repair work, consider hiring a professional: it could save you time and money later. And a few hundred dollars well spent can be the best investment you’ll ever make. Remember, you need to think like a buyer now and have a critical eye. I always caution when improving only to sell not to spend too much or have your own personal taste showcased. Two reasons: one, there is no guarantee you will get your return back on selling and two, a buyer likes to see that they can add their own personal taste in a neutrally designed space. Items you have added over the years such as a hot tub, wet bar or theatre room for your own enjoyment over the last 10 years do not reflect as extra value. They may make your home more desirable to buyers though. One hundred percent return only calculates in when you are flipping properties, and that can be chancy also.
