Frequently Asked Real Estate Questions-Ep. 17

What should I do to get my home SOLD FAST?

This is a great question! You are ready to move into a new house, maybe you need a smaller house or a larger house, or you have been relocated to a new city or you just want to take advantage of the amazing low interest rates and move into your dream home. Whatever the reason you want to get your house sold quickly and move on. What are some tips to get your house sold fast?

If you price your house correctly, present it well and hire the right agent, you will get your house sold! I want to cover a few simple tips you can do to present your house in the best way to perspective buyers, which will result in you getting your house sold quickly.

1. Neutral Colors! This is a must. I understand that everyone’s favorite color is not tan and beige, but that is the color palette your walls need to be in when trying to sell it. Buyers want to be able to MOVE RIGHT IN. Which means, they need/want the walls to be neutral so no matter what color their furniture is, it will work with the existing wall colors.

2. Remove Clutter! Another must! I know people do not live in a clutter free home all the time, but when you have it listed for sale, it needs to be clutter free!

3. Light! Open the blinds and let it shine in. Leave lights on for showings and add a lamp to a room that is dark.

4. Clean! Clean like you never have before. Windows, under beds, closets, floor trim, ceiling fans etc…a clean house sells faster, no doubt about it! Buyers can tell the difference and will feel like the house has been well taken care of, which will put it to the top of their list.

5. Smell! What does your house smell like? No matter what you think every house has a scent. You need to make sure your house scent is a good one. Clean and fresh is the goal. DO NOT use strong room sprays before showings, and if you have pets, make sure the buyers cannot smell their odors.

These are my top 5 presentation tips. If you or someone you know has a house to sell quickly, I want to help! There is no cost or obligation to meet with me and discuss how we can get your house sold!
