Once you’ve made the commitment to sell your home, chosen a real estate agent to represent you, and established a list price, it’s time to work with your agent to market your property so it sells as quickly as possible. Your agent should share a marketing plan with you, but the more you know about the process of selling your home the easier it is to support your agent’s efforts.
The day your home goes on the market it should be in prime condition and priced right to attract the most potential buyers. While your real estate agent can help you determine an appropriate price and can offer suggestions to make your home more appealing, your job is to put in the work to get your home pristine clean and to remove clutter and personalization. Buyers want to see a home where they can visualize themselves living. If buyers see an overstuffed closet, they’ll assume the home lacks storage space; and if your kitchen counters are cluttered, they’ll think the space is too small.
Provide your agent with tips about what you love best about your home and community that can be incorporated into your marketing materials. Your agent ca
s that are for sale, or even local model homes for ideas on ways to present your home to potential buyers.
Many real estate agents have experience staging homes, or they can bring in a professional home stager to rearrange your place. Once buyers begin visiting your home or contacting your agent, they should respond as quickly as possible to keep the momentum going. Every visitor to your home or their agent should be contacted by your real estate agent to get feedback on your home and to gauge their interest. This is why it’s so important to work with a reputable and reliable real estate professional to make sure your home gets marketed the way it deserves.
