4 Tips To Sell Your Home Quickly




Sell Your Home Quickly




A quick and profitable sale is the goal in mind when selling your home. Who doesn’t want their home  to sell quickly and for the best price possible? No one wants to have showing after showing with no offers, low ball offers, or worse yet no showings at all. Research shows that the longer a home is on the market, the less the seller will net. If you are selling your home here are some tips to help you sell your home quickly and for the most money.

1. Correct Listing Price

It is of utmost importance to price your home at competitive market value. In our area on the shore the market is extremely competitive. Over-pricing your home may result in longer time on the market and often lower offers. Pricing a home at a higher price does not lead to a higher sale price. The most important factor in selling your home for the most money and in the shortest time frame is pricing it correctly.


2. Cleanliness & Clutter-free

A house that is fresh, clean and clutter-free sells quicker and at a higher price. With less clutter your home will appear larger and more spacious. Buyers are attracted to a well-maintained home. When buyers walk through your home and see that it has been taken care of they are less fearful of potential problems. Take the time to clean out the clutter. Since you will be moving anyway now is the time to begin packing those things that just take up space. 

3. Accessibility

When your home is on the market and priced correctly buyers are going to want to schedule showings and see it. Be willing to let buyers come and see your home. Before selling your home think of places you or your family could go during scheduled showings.  Your home needs to be accessible to home buyers so make your home available to be seen. Ensure that your home is show-ready prior to leaving for the day. Some buyers are only able to house hunt on the weekends due to work schedules. Others, may be moving in from out of town and only have a small window of time to look at homes while they are in town. You don’t want your home to be left out of considerations because it is not available to view.

4. Fresh Paint

The best and least expensive improvement you can make in your home is a fresh coat of paint. You will get a greater return for your money with paint. A home appears fresh and neat with a new coat of paint. Chipped paint, dark paint colors, and dirty walls are turnoffs to buyers. If your home needs updating talk with a realtor about improvements before spending a lot of money on major renovations that do not bring in much return on investment. A professional realtor familiar with your area will know what features buyers are looking for. Fresh neutral paint is always a great place to start when selling your home.

Here’s What a Recession Could Mean for the Housing Market

  Here’s What a Recession Could Mean for the Housing Market Recession talk is all over the news, and the odds of a recession are rising this year. And that leaves people wondering what would happen to the housing market if we do go into a recession. Let’s take a look at some historical data to show what’s happened in housing for each recession going all the way back to the 1980s. A Recession Doesn’t Mean Home Prices Will Fall Many people think that if a recession hits, home prices will fall like they did in 2008. But that was an exception, not the rule. It was the only time we saw such a steep drop in prices. And it hasn’t happened since. In fact, according to data from  CoreLogic , in four of the last six recessions, home prices actually went up ( see graph below ): So, if you’re thinking about buying or selling a home, don’t assume a recession will lead to a crash in home prices. The data simply doesn’t support that idea. Instead, home prices usually follow whateve...

  GET READY TO SELL!! Spring is the busiest season in the housing market. It’s the time of year when buyers are most active – that means it’s when homes sell faster and for top dollar. If you’ve already got a move on your mind, why not list this spring and take advantage of the added buyer demand? Since spring is just around the corner, now’s the time to start getting your house market-ready. You’ve got just over a month to do the prep work. And while that may sound like a decent amount of time, it’s going to go by quickly. And you won’t want to rush through this important task – especially this year.

That combination means you need to invest some time and effort in making strategic repairs. And many homeowners already have a jump on this work. In the  2025 Outlook for Home Remodeli...

More Homes for Sale Isn’t a Warning Sign – It's Your Buying Opportunity

    More Homes for Sale Isn’t a Warning Sign – It's Your Buying Opportunity Maybe you’ve heard the number of homes for sale has reached a recent high. And it might make you question if this is the start of another housing market crash. But the reality is, the data proves that’s just not the case. In most areas, more inventory isn’t bad news. It’s actually a sign of the market returning to a more stable, healthy place. What’s Going on With Inventory? Based on the latest data from  Realtor.com , inventory just hit its highest point since 2020, shown with the white line in the graph below. But what you need to realize is, at the same time, inventory levels still haven’t returned to pre-pandemic norms ( shown in gray ) : That means there are more homes for sale now than there have been in quite some time. And while it’s true inventory is up significantly compared to where it was over the last few years, the number of homes on the market is still well below typical l...
