Tips to selling your Nashville Home
Tips to selling your Nashville Home
First impressions Are Critical. Sales have been blown by unkempt lawns, cluttered closets, unpainted front doors, hard-to-work locks, blown light bulbs, bad colors, stains, unlit areas and foul smells. Spend time on the little things. Double up on your gardening. Keep things cleaner than usual. Take serious control of your pets during this time period.
Make The Right Kind Of Repairs. Before making improvements prior to listing, consult a real estate professional. Some upgrades will not yield any real increase in value, while others may increase property value substantially. Ask for low cost solutions to minor repairs that will yield the best profits.
Make Your Property Accessible to Buyers. Lock boxes are a great way to make your home most accessible to agents for showing. Our electronic lock boxes keep a detailed record of anyone who enters your home. Appointment-only showings are the most restrictive. If your lifestyle is not compatible with frequent showings, your agent will help you determine a solution to suit your needs. Remember, the easier a home is to show, the better the odds are of getting the deal you want.
Use The Latest Marketing Technology. Make sure your agent utilizes the latest technology, such as Internet sites that cater to homebuyers. Some use 800-number interactive voice response systems. A good agent will know where you can get the best exposure.
Stage Your Property Correctly. Put some items in storage, create more light, rearrange furniture. Your agent can offer helpful advice to create the right first impression.
Price Your Home Right The First Time. Your agent can research comparable sales in your area and advise you of the appropriate price range for your property. A home priced correctly sells much easier than one priced too high with price reductions later.
Screen Prospects Adequately. One of the best reasons for hiring a realtor is his/her ability to pre-qualify a prospect financially so that you don't lose valuable negotiation time. Your agent may discover when a prospect has an ulterior motive for shopping homes, other than purchasing.
Don't Test The Market. Never put your property on the market unless you really want a sale! Get ready for a professional sales push when you list with a great agent. If your plan harbors some indecision, resolve it before you list because success is every great REALTOR'S® objective!
