Guide to Selling Your Home

When it comes to selling your home, timing is everything. Although there are times when you have to put your home on the market immediately, it’s best to wait for a time when the most people are buying. The biggest selling season usually begins in spring and ends after summer. During this time, buyers are plenty and are looking for homes before the start of the new school year. Sellers can typically receive the best price for their home during this time but need to make sure that they market it properly to stand out amongst the competition. Open houses are important during this busy buying and selling season and are a great way to show your home to a lot of people at once.

After deciding on the best time to sell your home, it’s time to prepare your home for sale. To begin, have your house pre-inspected. This is a great way to stand out amongst the other homes on the market and can ensure buyers that your home is worth the amount it is listed for. Next, partner with a great local real estate agent. This agent can help you prepare necessary paperwork, list your house properly, and can bring in more potential buyers than you could alone. They can also give you advice on how much to sell your home for and how to increase the value through renovations.

How do you stand out in a big market?

Staging your home comes into play here. To begin, make sure to thoroughly check the home for minor repairs. Repairing broken faucets, repainting baseboards, and replacing old knobs can easily improve the appearance of your home. Then, work on “de-personalizing” your home. Buyers need to be able to picture their family in the home, so pack up family photos and personal mementos early. Also, clear your home of any unnecessary furniture to help the rooms look bigger and more spacious.

Selling your home is easy when you properly prepare for the process. Partnering with an expert real estate agent, such as Eric Vaughn, will ease the stress and make the process easier. Contact the team at Eric Vaughn today!
