Here are five things you need to do: Staging the home. Staging is important. First, examine the outside of the house. Make sure the grass is mowed and the shutters are in good shape. When buyers drive by your home, they should feel compelled to see the inside. To prepare the inside of your house, reduce clutter and depersonalize. Remove oversized furniture and personal photos. Staging the home helps them see it in the best light. Take professional photos. Pictures are worth 1,000 words in real estate. 98% of buyers begin their home search online and we need quality pictures to attract them. Hire a professional photographer. They have the right equipment and the right eye to help your home stand out online. Studies show listings with professional pictures attract significantly more buyers compared to those without them. Look at absorption rates. We compare your home to previously sold properties and others available on the market. This analysis indicates how long it will take to sell your property. Many sellers need to move into their new home within 60 to 90 days, so we can ensure you move on time as well. Consider competition. Measure your house against what’s coming on the market and what’s currently on the market. We need to see how your property stacks up against the competition. Keeping track of comparable listings also helps us get the best price for your property. Explore exposure. We expose your home to the largest pool of buyers possible by using several different marketing strategies. We put our sign in the yard and list the property on the MLS, but we also add the property to our website and several others. We also have an incredibly strong social media campaign to attract as many buyers as possible. If you have any questions about today’s video, give us a call or send us an email. We would be happy to help you!
