Small things can make a big difference, such as moving out furniture that makes a room look cluttered, or simply rearranging furniture to make a room look larger. Simply pulling back drapes for more light in a room, removing old wall paper, adding fresh coat of paint, and cleaning the carpeting can make a huge difference in a buyer’s first impression. This is what can set your house aside from the rest and possible get you the offer that you want. I would be more then happy to provide you with a list of contractors that I have worked with to get the job done.
Most Home Buyers looking in Buffalo Grove will want to be in before the beginning of the school year. That means time is of the essence as June is approaching. The season is ripe as we now have interest rates floating between 4.75% to as low as 4.5%. Rates are predicated to stay low for the next several months so what is the next step?
In order to sell Real Estate in the Buffalo Grove Market you have to price your home right. There are currently 227 Single Family Homes for Sale in Buffalo Grove with an average list price of $406,482 and the average days on the market is 170. That is a lot of competition so taking the steps I have suggested above is critical.
Year to date 80 homes have sold in Buffalo Grove with an average sale price of $347,093. The original list price average is $376,833. As you can see that is 92% of the original list price so again being prepared and having a realtor who knows the numbers is very important. Many agents will tell you what you want to hear and not the facts.
Last but not least is the marketing of your home. Remember your first showing of your home today is online and then the second showing is when the potential buyer comes to view the home. Open houses do not sell houses, however internet marketing is what works today. How many web sites will your home appear on? What reports will I receive? What newspapers will your home be advertised in? Do you have any local referrals? These are all great questions to ask.
The bottom line is waiting for another year for the Buffalo Grove Real Estate Market to recover may not be your best choice as we are in this for a quite a while to come.
