2. Determine your 3 needs / 2 wants for the sale and for your new home!
Selling your primary residence can be tricky because you have to simultaneously be thinking about where you would like to buy. First weigh your priorities – selling price is certainly important, but having a quick and efficient sale can often be worth accepting a slightly lower offer. Let's talk about your options, and let's make sure you’re comfortable with where your priorities are. Call me at 613-314-0700,
At the same time, you should be compiling a needs/wants list for the home you will buy. You will probably have to act fairly quickly when your house sells, so any amount of preparation you can do will serve you well.
3. Prepare your house for showing!
Underprepared homes can be sales disasters. Your home will never get as much attention from potential buyers as when it's first listed, so clearing clutter, cleaning, making repairs, and putting your home’s best foot forward is essential. Don’t “open for business” until your home is ready to be seen as favorably as possible.
4. Find out how your local market is acting!.. Get a CMA!
Being realistic about your market is the key to a smooth sale. There is no substitute for a professional comparative market analysis when it comes to local market knowledge. Be aware of the price paid for homes like yours in your neighborhood. That should be the blueprint for your expectations... Let me help you with this task!
5. Let's list it!
Lots of great photos and tons of online exposure are the keys to getting a good response for your listing. Working with me who not only have Point2 Agent software, but also many other points of contact on the internet, is a great step in the right direction. Now, let us “open” your house and sell its good points to the flood of eager buyers!
