What you need to know before selling your house
Ever wondered why some houses in the neighborhood are selling like hotcakes?
The Crucial Role of Preparation
Ever wondered why certain homes in your neighborhood sell almost instantly while others linger on the market? The secret often lies in meticulous preparation before listing. Well-prepared homes are like magnets for potential buyers; they offer great first impressions, require fewer immediate repairs, and generally give a vibe of being 'move-in ready'. In a high-demand housing market, these properties often fly off the shelves, sometimes even sparking bidding wars.

Things you can do to prepare for selling your home
Does your house have curb appeal?
Take a good look at your house on the outside. Do you need to trim some trees, plant some flowers, pressure wash, or even paint the outside? This is the buyers first impression of the house so let's make it count!
How to prepare the inside of the house for sale.
Remove clutter and personal items so a buyer can imagine their things in the home. Take down photos and fill any remaining holes in the walls. Touch up paint, clean carpets, and anything else that might need attention. Clean, clean, clean!!
Should you hire a home stager?
Staging is a great thing. Homes do sell faster and for more money, but it is an added expense and if you live in the home, you must be careful of the stagers items while trying to live around them. Check out my blog for more information about Home Staging.
Still not sure how much to do on your house to prepare it to sell?
Wouldn't it be nice if you could learn all you need to know right here? There is a lot of information I can give you on a website but, there are some things that just need to be done in person. You could send me pictures of your home but that wouldn't tell me if there is a pet or musty smell. It doesn't give the full experience a buyer would get. So, even if you're not ready to sell yet, let's schedule an appointment so we can look at your home and come up with a custom plan to prepare it for a future sale.
While we're forming that plan, we can get to know one another so you can decide if we are the right Real Estate agents for you. If you’re going to be selling your home, you want to work with real estate agents you trust and feel comfortable with.

When is the best time to sell a house?
We've always believed the best time to buy or sell a home is when you're ready.
Spring has traditionally been a great time to sell because homes tend to sell faster. If you're selling. and buying this can cause you to have a more difficult time finding and winning your next home.
Fall usually brings a small rush as of buyers wishing to move before the holiday season arrives.
Knowing what the market is doing and having realistic expectations for the time when you are ready to sell, are key to a smoother home sale any time of year.
How Much Does it Cost to Sell a House
There are costs associated with selling a house. Escrow fees, taxes, and real estate agents to name a few. If you are in a community with an HOA, there may be a transfer fee. You may have some repair and preparation costs as well.
We have some calculators to help you figure out the costs we know about. The escrow fees, taxes, and real estate agents. There are links to three different calculators below provided by Fidelity National Title that give you a breakdown of the fees based on the location and selling price of the house. Go ahead and have a bit of fun with them.
The unknown is the repairs and preparation. Don't let the unknown costs scare you. There are many ways to handle these costs without having to sell pictures of your feet on Only Fans. Every situation is unique, and we will work closely with you to keep the costs down and manage the process so you can keep your shoes on.

How Do I Set the Right Price for My Home?
Setting the right price for your home is a delicate balance that requires a mix of market research, professional advice, and in depth understanding of a home's unique features.
Start by looking at comparable homes in your area—those with similar size, age, and amenities—that have sold recently. This will give you a baseline for setting a competitive yet reasonable asking price.
Utilize online tools, but also consult with us to provide you with insights beyond just numbers, such as current market trends, buyer behavior, and seasonality, to help fine-tune your pricing strategy.
While it may be tempting to price your home on the higher end, overpricing can be a pitfall that leaves your property sitting on the market and can eventually force you to sell at a lower price.
On the flip side, underpricing could mean leaving money on the table, although it might generate quick interest and even a bidding war.
The key is to find the sweet spot where the price is attractive to potential buyers, yet still maximizes your profit. It's a tough balance that requires market knowledge.
