How long does it take to sell a property? Some properties sell in a few days, others may take several months. By recognizing some key factors that influence marketing a home, you can get significant control over market time.

The proper balance of these factors will expedite your sale:

A Location, Location is the single greatest factor affecting value. A neighborhood's desirability is basic to a property's fair market value.

A Competition, Buyers compare your property against others in that neighborhood. Buyers interpret value based on available properties on the market.

ATiming, The real estate market may reflect a "buyers" or "sellers" market. Market conditions cannot be manipulated; an individually tailored marketing plan of action must be developed for each property.

A Condition, The property condition will affect price and speed of sale. Optimizing physical appearance and advance preparation for marketing maximizes value.

ATerms, The more terms available, the larger the market, the quicker the sale and the higher the price. Terms structured to meet your objectives are important to successful marketing.

A Price, If the property is not properly priced, a sale may be delayed or even prevented. Reviewing the Comparative Market Analysis assists you in determining the best possible price.
