Want to Sell Your Home?

By
Real Estate Agent with Real Estate West



Find a terrific Publicist (Real Estate Agent) who knows how to create some pizzaz, a unique attraction around your home. You may not realize how special your property is, only your agent appreciates what a jewel you have. This is what goes through his mind as he takes steps to  present this for sale.

If your agent is competent and articulate, he/she will be able to present a side of your property that the buyer does not appreciate; the features that make your home a discovery that creates a need that otherwise did not exist. This is creative selling at its best.

There are logical calculated steps you can take to sell your home faster including:
= Reducing the sales price: Check out the neighborhood for comparable properties pricing.
= Repairing and updating to the home: It's surprising what you've overlooked over the years, and not always that expensive to upgrade vis-a-vis return in sales appeal.
= Replacing dated appliances: Ditto the above.
= Home Staging: Staging by a competent decorator can do wonders.
= Offering seller-financing to a buyer: Nothing like a little financial incentive to add appeal.

I like this uplifting powerful message.  I would also add (at least in our area) - offering a "fair" co-broke fee to the buyer's agent.

It is a good list - but you can have a wonderful product but without the proper marketing no one will see it.  Increase your demand with a static supply you will realize a higher price.
