Get Professional Photos Taken One of the most important things you can do when selling your home is to get professional photos taken. They are the first impression you make on potential buyers, so you want to make sure your home is memorable. Oftentimes, buyers will want to see clear, high-quality photos of your home before they even consider coming to see it in person.
Price Your Home Competitively It’s important to price your home competitively when selling it. You don’t want to overprice your home, leaving it to sit on the market for months, or even years. On the other hand, you also don’t want to underprice your home and leave money on the table. Check out our property value estimator tool to get an idea of what to price your home at!
Set a Timeline for Selling Your Home When selling your home, it’s important to set a timeline for yourself. This will help you stay organized and on track throughout the process. For example, you might want to give yourself two weeks to get your home ready for showings, four weeks to market your home, and two weeks to close the deal.
Talk to an Experienced Real Estate Agent Last but not least, be sure to talk to an experienced real estate agent before you sell your home. Their extensive knowledge about the current market and the complexities of the selling process can help ensure you get the best deal.
