You would be amazed at how easy it is to improve your home-selling chances. Below, I have provided a quick check-list to selling success!
10 Points To Consider When Selling Your Home
- If possible, sell before buying - you're in a much stronger position to negotiate.
- A coat of paint does wonders, but don't go overboard with renovations just before selling as you may not recoup the money you spend.
- When selecting a paint color just before selling, wherever possible choose white or something neutral.
- Create a warm friendly atmosphere with fresh flowers and lots of light - for day showings open the drapes and for night showings switch on all inside and outside lights.
- Repair any roof leaks or damp patches -- these two things make buyers very nervous.
- Tell the REALTOR® exactly what is staying and what is not (i.e. fixed shelves and mirrors).
- Make sure that your home is properly priced, so that it may compete to its best advantage in the market place.
- Keep your home uncluttered - please put it away in boxes for the duration of the marketing of your home.
- Keep lawns trimmed and garden neat.
- Use Tom Whitfield as your REALTOR® to get top dollar for your home, the best terms, and least inconvenience to you.
