Lark and I have recently been on several pre-listing appointments where we have been asked to itemize what needs to be done to make their home sellable. Many people understand what it takes in this market to get their home ready for a buyer to walk through and, hopefully, make an offer! Many need guidance as to what will enable their home to sell faster and for the price they want.
If you have any questions and uncertainties about what to do, not only ask, but listen to your Realtor. You absolutely have to be in “ready” condition. From the walkway to the entry and inside, your home must be in clean, presentable condition. We understand that we all live in our homes differently than when we stage it to sell. We are not there to judge you, but to help. If the home is not ready, the longer it’s going to take to sell, the less the seller is going to net. If you are not quite convinced just take a tour of a couple of homes in your own subdivision that have been on the market more than 120 days. Remember, when we bring you the comparable information about activity in your subdivision, it also includes your “competition”!!
The entire picture of the market has to be taken into account! As Realtors, we can help you from this point all the way to the closing, which will make everyone happy!
By the way, if you are making some upgrades to your homes, remember our excellent vendors who have given discount coupons available on our www.paradigmedge.com website! Check it out!
