Why Isn’t That Home Selling? Clue: It’s Not Always About Price
Are you shopping for a new home?
Have you seen home after home and learn days laters(okay, it seems like mere hours) that a home has an accepted offer? Maybe there were multiple offers. Perhaps over the list price.
Hmmm --- you review what’s on the market...and you notice....
A home that’s been on the market for 30 - 60 maybe 90 days or more...
Why Isn’t That Home Selling?
Clue: It’s Not Always About Price
Sure, price is an important factor in selling but it’s not always about price.
What else could it possibly be?
- Make your home accessible - easily accessible
- Showing(Selling) Agents want easy instructions to show -- make sure you see what the Realtor community will see regarding the showing of your home - ask your Realtor
- Are you requiring advance notice 24, 48 or more hours before a showing can occur?
- Do you or your agent need to be in attendance?
- Do you have a lockbox?
- Do you restrict showing hours?
- Do you have a pet -- big or intimidating dog? A cat that loves to escape?
Making your home easy to show - can help make easier to sell
Please note, when you list with me -- it does not mean your home is open for business 24/7 --- let me discuss a proven strategy that works in order to expose your home to the most likely buyers that will actually save you time and bring an offer that you can accept.
