When selling your home it's so important to hire someone who is knowledgeable in helping you to get the best possible price for your home. It is hard for the seller most of the time to be objective about their home. After all it's been "your space", "your home". Now you must look at your home as the potential buyers home. How is this done? It's a process but it does not have to be a difficult one. 1. Get information: Hire a real estate agent to help you get on your way to selling your home.
2. Allow this person to give their professional opinion about your homes current state. How to get your home ready for sale.
3. Some easy tasks to get started:
a. de-clutter
b. clean, clean, clean
c. take down dated wallpaper-pic a current neutral color to paint.
d. paint risers to stairs, paint the front door to give it a face lift.
e. Examine your bathroom, and kitchen with your agent. What improvements if any are needed to spruce up these rooms. Remember new prospective buyers eye you must now adopt.
g. Remember: you are selling, your thumbprint is being removed and a clean canvas is being created for the new prospective buyer.
There are many more ideas and suggestions in preparing a home for the market. A real estate agent is versed in this area of preparing a home for sale. Hire an agent, trust your agent!
