Hello Homeowners!!!
If you or anyone you know are thinking about selling
your home, here are some helpful tips I hope you enjoy :)
The First thing I would like to talk about is the
first impression. First impressions matter, and where is the first impression made
these days? Pictures. When we market your property for sale, pictures are as
important as pricing. In today’s world, more and more people search for
properties to buy online, and one of the first things we do is look at pictures
of the property. It is all about the visual. Now let’s say the pictures look
great and all the descriptions and price fit, next step is viewing the home for
the first time. Many times, I have taken clients to see properties and the
pictures look but, when we enter the property BOOOM, the property does not look
exactly like the pictures.
So here are some suggestions I am offering to you:
First look for a Realtor/
Real estate agent that will give you suggestions on how to
declutter, and advise before marketing you home. We work with buyers all the
time, we see their expressions, hear their comments when we enter a property. Be open minded when your agent gives you
advice, we are not critiquing your property we are only trying to help you sell.
As homeowners, we always think that our house is perfect just as it is. We need
to see our home through a buyer’s eyes. When selling your home, you should
declutter and depersonalize so a buyer can see themselves living there. Also,
we should make any repairs needed because although you may feel it is minor, a
homebuyer might not.
I, for example have a keen eye and will advise you as
if your house is mine. What I would do to make my home the best showing
property?
Depersonalize,
pay attention to curb
appeal, and remember it is about the visual. We create an emotional
attachment to our property for one reason, or another, but we can’t let this
attachment interfere with the negotiations. The new buyers are ready to create
their memories.
