Selling Tips

Here are just a few ideas that may help when you prepare to sell your home.

Focus on curb appeal. Admit it: First impressions matter.

Make all necessary repairs. Even minor things, such as a leaky faucet or chipped paint on a baseboard, can suggest to buyers that you might not be maintaining the house well in other ways, too. 

Stage the house. Staging involves deeply cleaning, decluttering, depersonalizing and arranging furnishings to make your house as appealing as possible.

Have a realistic target price knowing what a professional appraiser believes your house is worth is a good reality check on a couple of fronts and it takes a lot of the guesswork out of the price.

Home Warranties. Everyone likes a security blanket. Home warranties give buyers an assurance that if something goes wrong with any of the major appliances, plumbing or electrical systems in the house, they won't have to shell out a lot to get them fixed.

My best advice is to call a professional to help when you are gettng ready to sell your home a Realtor knows how to help you make the most of your home.
