Selling your home? here are some thoughts... Whatever is the reason why you need or want to sell your property, here are a few things to know before putting your home on the market. 1. What is your mortgage balance?... If you have a loan on your property, it’s important to know how much you’ll need in order to pay off your current mortgage. 2 How much is your house worth? I will be happy to study the market pool of properties against which your home will be competing and provide pricing strategies based upon your needs and circumstances. 3 How much will it cost to sell your property? I will assist in providing an estimate of your closing costs from the very beginning of a transaction so that you will know what your proceeds will be at close of escrow. 4 Does your property need any repairs? Buyers will typically offer a lower amount if they see a lot of things that need to be addressed. In order to receive great offer, it is in your interest to just addressed those small repairs before you put your home on the market. 5 What needs to be done to get your house ready? You want buyers to feel like they are home as soon as they enter you home! That’s why everything must be sparkling clean. Curb appeal, organized cabinets and closets, uncluttered and welcoming spaces are some of the areas you will need to focus before marketing your home. Staging your home properly can make a world of difference to the bottom line. Often sellers will temporarily rent a storage space for those items that mean the world to them but would not necessarily appeal to the average buyers. 6 Ready to have your house shown? Sellers that attend their own open houses make buyers nervous. They don’t feel comfortable inspecting the home thoroughly and they will leave with a lot of unanswered questions. Also, be ready to have your house shown at all times in order to avoid losing those clients that must see it today. 7 Are you truly ready to sell? Home owners are naturally very emotionally attached to their home and sometimes a little sensitive. It is a good idea to keep in mind that selling your home is a business transaction that will empower the new owner to create their great memories in that space and will give you the ability to create your own great new memories somewhere else.
