This is the post 5 of a series of posts about selling your home.
What does it take to sell your home in Sumter? This is a question that I often hear. I like any other agent have had some homes linger on the market to suddenly sell. I have also had homes sell very quickly. The properties that sell have several common threads among them... You have probably heard this before if you have listed a home, watched the shows on tv or read on the internet, but here goes....
-
Is the house available for showing? NOW?! Yes it is aggrevating, but is your home ready to show with little advance notice? In the ideal world every Realtor® would love to be able to schedule their appointments at least 24 hours in advance. Unfortunately, that is the ideal world and things are different in the real world. Many times, a Realtor® will meet with potential buyers and then begin to show homes that same day. (Normally after getting them prequalified with a lender.) This means there is not time to make an appointment a day in advance. As for cancellations and no shows, don't feel alone. Many times agents are stood up by buyers after making their appointments or the buyer simply decides to stop looking in the middle of the showings. Yes, it would be nice for the buyers' agent to call the listing agent to let them know, but many times this does not happen for various reasons.
