Selling your home may feel like a big challenge to
some people, so much to do and so many questions. It really isn't that difficult to sell your home and after years of experience I have come up with a list of the top things you should know in advance to make the entire real estate transaction easier on yourself.
The buyer doesn't care how much you paid for the house and how much money you put into it. They only care about your homes current "Market Value" and if it will appraise.
Think of your home as a product you are selling an try your best to remove all emotional attachment to the home. The buyer may love your home or really want it, but if you are thinking from an emotional perspective you may not negotiate as well.
No One wants to look at your home wile you are there! You may be the nicest person around but buyers want to be able to look at your home without feeling like they are intruding. Its very awkward for most people and often times the buyer will leave your home quickly and not really see all of it just because they are uncomfortable.
Pet Odor will hinder your sale and quite possibly turn buyers away. You will need to neutralize any pet odor and your Realtor(R) should be the first person to point that out to you. I have 2 dogs and think every home should have a pet. We just don't want it to smell like it when we are selling.
Buyers Look in Everything! Every closet, every bathroom vanity, every nook and cranny. Be prepared. Lock your hand gun away, tidy up your closets and cabinets. They will be opened and looked at.
Now that you are a little more prepared for selling your home you will find it to be much easier when the time comes. I want you to remember that these are just a few things you need to be aware of. There is also curb appeal, furniture staging, lighting, air conditioning, basic cleanliness and of course the advertising of your Realtor(R) that all come together when selling your home.
