Selling Your Home on Super Bowl Sunday

By
Mortgage and Lending with Louisiana Mortgage Associates

The Super Bowl is one of the most cherished days in American sports, and with it being less than a week away, people are beginning to plan and finalize their Super Bowl party plans.  Even though we are Who Dat fans here in Lake Charles, and sad to see the Saints miss their chance at playing in the Super Bowl, we will certainly be watching on Sunday!

For homeowners who have their house on the market or will be selling soon, it is a great time to take advantage of this opportunity. When prospective home buyers are looking for a home, they always imagine what their life would be like if they lived there. Furnished homes are an excellent way to do this, but having actual people interacting within the home is even more helpful!

So put out some tasty table food, have a TV in plain sight for everyone to see and invite your friends over for a good time. Even though none of your friends might be interested in purchasing, some of their friends could be and you should tell them to tag along—this is a great opportunity for you to essentially market your own home. You should even invite your realtor to stop by, because the next time he or she shows your home, they can actually speak from experience about how accommodating your home is. 

Also, with historically low rates right now, it is the best time for a potential buyer to receive a low mortgage rate. Please, just remember to clean up after the party!
