The Practical Guide to Selling Your House Quickly and Getting a Better Price

Jim Pulman October 06, 2020 Reviews Leave a Comment

You can have many reasons to sell off your home but regardless of your motivation, once you have taken the decision, it is a good idea to make the transaction quickly. The reason for doing this is that the longer the property is on the market, the less valuable it becomes to prospective buyers. Some practical steps for selling your home in the shortest possible time:

  • Set a Realistic Listing Price
  • Smarten Your Home to Increase Its Appeal

Engage a Top-Rated Real Estate Agent 

Some sellers think that by selling the property directly they can get more money because they do not have to pay the real estate agent’s commission. However, nothing could be further from the truth as nobody knows the market better than them. Selling a home can be very hard work and real estate agents take on the entire responsibility of making your listing attractive, marketing the property to customers, scheduling showings, and taking care of the paperwork. By hiring reputed local real estate agents, you can sit back and relax and wait for interested buyers to make their offers. By trying to do everything on your own, you could potentially end up losing thousands of dollars due to your inexperience.

Set a Realistic Listing Price

Since homeowners assume that prospective buyers will negotiate hard, they set a high listing price. However, many buyers may just assume that the property is overpriced and not show any interest at all. Many buyers are also very rushed for time and do not have the patient to get into a bargaining mode. If your house remains unsold for a long time due to the high asking price, its value will automatically fall and smart buyers will take advantage of your desperation and drive its value further down. The smart thing is to find out the prevailing market prices of similar properties in your area and set the price competitively to sell house fast.

Smarten Your Home to Increase Its Appeal 

Many homeowners think that it does not matter how their home looks to prospective buyers because they will anyway redecorate it as per their preferences. According to https://www.dailyrepublic.com, staging helps to create a more emotional purchase that makes it possible for the property to get a better price. If you are still residing in your home, make the effort to clean and declutter your home, paint the walls, replace the carpets and update the light fixtures and even the appliances, if possible. Make it a point to do up the backyard. If the house is vacant, engage a professional to stage the house and enhance is appeal overnight. You could even put your belongings in a self storage facility in the meantime to clear up some space. The extra effort and investment are well worth it since the house sells quicker and for a significantly better price.

Conclusion 

Since most buyers view the listing online, you need to pay special attention to what it contains and how best it showcases your property with photos and videos. Make sure that the listing displays well on mobiles and tablets and if need be, engage a professional photographer because high-resolution and aesthetic photos can potentially fetch you, thousands of dollars more. To sell your home quickly and for a better price, you should avoid cutting corners and approach the issue as best as you can.
