It’s a seller’s market — meaning now is the best time to sell your home! Here are nine tips to help you get your home sold:
1. Hire a Shorewest Professional. A trusted Shorewest Agent will help you price your home, attract potential buyers, handle contracts and so much more. To find your Shorewest Agent, click here.
2. Full disclosure. You need to fully disclose anything and everything about your house. Does your roof need to be repaired? Has there ever been a water leak in the basement? If you withhold information about your house to your buyers, you could be in lots of trouble.
3. Price appropriately. Pricing your home correctly from the start will only help you in the long term. An overpriced home sits on the market for months —with no showings or offers. Your home will receive more traffic if it’s priced correctly.
4. Detach emotions. When you look at your house, you see memories and are often emotionally attached. It’s hard to remove yourself emotionally from your house, but your Shorewest Agent can help you.
5. Ask questions. You may have hired a Shorewest Agent to help you, but you can still be involved. Stay involved in the process, ask questions and communicate with your Shorewest Agent regularly.
6. Staging is important. Staging your house is extremely important — it helps potential buyers see themselves in your house. You will have to pack up personal belongings, clear closets and counters and pack away any clutter. You may have to tone down your personal style — but it will help buyers see the true potential of your house. By staging your house and removing personal belongings, your sellers can now picture themselves in your space.
7. Leave during showings. You may have put a lot of time in getting your home ready to sell, but you need to leave during showings. Lingering during showings can make potential buyers uncomfortable.
8. Flexibility is key. Be willing to be available for last-minute showings. Be willing to negotiate.
9. Trust your Shorewest Agent. Selling your house can be a tough process, but your Shorewest Agent will help get the job done.
