Those homeowners planning to sell early in the New Year should take a moment to plan ahead. Timing is important when entering a Real Estate Market.

If you want a painless sale with a truly beneficial outcome, your home must be picture perfect, priced well and ready to be promoted and marketed by your chosen Realtor by the end of February! If you need more time, be sure to have ready for the Market by the week, following March Break, any later than that… and you may be disappointed.

This is the time to keep the realities of this new Buyers Market in mind. Be ready and do not leave anything to chance!

If your home needs a slight cosmetic upgrade… go and do what needs to be done BEFORE you list it. Call your Realtor now, before Christmas, and ask for advice. Last thing we want you to do is to spend more money than needed!

Set a realistic budget, make a list of all items that need your attention, and be honest with yourself about your abilities to do the job yourself. If you need help, ask for it, friends and relatives will be willing to help with things you can’t handle.

If something in your home bothers you, like that leaking faucet, you can be sure that the buyer will notice it and it will give them the opportunity to ask for the price reduction.

De-clutter and remove things that will distract the potential buyer. Remember, they are not there to admire your family pictures.

The point is to present your home in the best possible light, so when it time to compete with other listings it will standout from the crowd.

Be sure to truly listen to pricing advice from your Realtor, we do have special techniques that we use to even give you an idea how long it will take to sell, based on your asking price… Doing it right the first time is the way to go!

Choose a Realtor who does more than most other Realtors. In this Market, you need to have access to innovative promotion and advertising ways, and you need someone who will do their job right, so you don’t have to worry.

Homes are still selling in this changing market and we now work with more buyers that before. Your job is to entice those buyers to fall in love with YOUR home… For more tips and advice on how to do that, please visit my website or request a FREE Seller-Tools CD here.
