10 Factors Most Likely to Influence Your Sale
Realtors agree that there are many factors that influence the sale of a house. Completing these Real Estate Tips may bring you closer to an offer on your home.
1. Price the property competitively.
2. Be willing to consider offers based on VA/FHA terms. Government terms give many buyers a head start on the ability to afford a home.
3. Allow the property to be shown with or without an appointment! That's a nuisance, but not as bad as being on the market for 6 months!
4. Please be gone whenever a prospective buyer, accompanied by a Realtor®, wants to see the house--and stay gone until they're gone! Buyers need to "try it on for size", but they can't do that as long as you are there.
5. Eliminate any barrier to a free flow of traffic in the property. Items such as extra furniture, house plants that stick into traffic ways, toys or clothes not put away, or beds not made, etc., slow down traffic and make rooms look smaller and darker. Unclutter, Unclutter, Unclutter!
6. Potential buyers may see your friendly dog as a threat or distraction. Try to make arrangements for your pet when you know there will be a showing.
7. Your Realtor® is on your side. Listen to their advice and let their years of experience guide you to a quick and profitable sale!
8. Drive up to your home as if you have never been there before. Look at the front of your house. Size it up objectively and critically (that's asking a lot of any homeowner!). Ask yourself this question: If a buyer pulled up in front, would the appearance pull them inside?
9. Make any and all recommended improvements with an eye toward neutral marketing. (Be aware of unusual colors or styles that might clash with a prospective buyer's taste.)
10. Be willing to consider any offer at anytime. Remember, you are the final judge of what's accepted and what's not! |
