There are many things you can do to improve your home when you’re preparing to list it on the market, but four things stand out to us.There are plenty of things you can do to make sure your home is in tip-top shape when it comes time to list it on the market. We’ve got four different tips to share with you today that will help you sell your home faster and for more money:1. Staging. The way you live in your home is fine, but if it’s going on the market it has to look sharp. Remove items that don’t need to be there. Fresh paint, fresh carpet, and fresh scents all make the home appealing. Many buyers are looking for homes that are move-in ready.2. Market knowledge. Understanding what is going on in your local market is huge. When you know what your neighbors are selling for, it can help you sell as well.3. Price it right. I haven’t ever seen a home sell for more money because it was overpriced. The only way you can get the most money possible for your home is by pricing right. Think of it this way - if you bought a stock for $75 a share and the value dipped to $25, you aren’t going to be able to sell it for $35 a share. Your home is the same way. You need market knowledge in order to price correctly and get it sold.4. Home inspection. We all live with the little things that are wrong in our home such as leaky faucets or creaky doors. Buyers notice these things, however, and devalue your home because of it. Having an inspector come in before you list the home and give you a rundown of every little thing wrong with your home is a smart move. You can prioritize what you want to fix and make sure your home looks as good as possible when it comes time to list.Home inspections can tell you a lot. If you have any questions for me, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you.
