As Easy As Pie
You’ve likely heard the expression that something is
This has nothing to do with the making of the pie but that of eating a piece(or two) of it.
Pie
Yeah, make mine cherry, thank you..
So let’s make selling your home as easy as pie.
How do we make that happen?
Make it easy to show.
Difficult showing restrictions can make the difference of making a property a must see or eliminated from a buyer's agent showing list.
Make it easy to sell.
Have any mandatory disclosures ready and available for a buyer to review prior to submitting an offer. Something wrong with your home? Repair or replace it. If that’s not possible or if you simply don’t want to -- disclose it.
You might be surprised that a buyer will be more accepting if they know these things upfront rather than after an agreement is reached.
You may want to consider a pre-sale inspection - the buyer can and should have their own but the discoveries your inspector makes can give you added information --- and that can work to your advantage -- ask me.
Make it look appetizing.
Come on -- you know that, right? Staging makes a difference but so does a thorough(and dare I say it - a professional) cleaning. Small details matter -- closets and cupboards, garages, baseboard and moldings. Start from the sidewalk.
What’s that smell?
It’s freshly brewed coffee and right-out-of-the-oven pie? Yes. Now that’s a pleasant image. However your furry and feathered friends may conjure up a different reaction. The same goes for that pile of laundry. You can put second hand smoke and other scents that have lingered far too long on your list too. I suggest you don’t trust your own nose but a friend(come on you know the one who will tell you the truth to your face) or a professional(like your agent or stager).
