Mistakes To Avoid
Before we get too far into explaining all the things you should do in order to properly sell your house, let’s take a minute to talk about the things you shouldn’t do.1
You need to set a realistic price, remember those pesky additional costs, and be willing to negotiate. You also want to make sure you don’t take unflattering pictures or refuse to stage the home. These simple mistakes can bring down the purchase price of your home or cause it to waste away on the market while you wait for a dream offer that isn’t coming.
Prepare Your Home for Sale
Most sellers want their home listed immediately when they decide to sell. However, I’ll bet that pretty much no home is really ready to be sold at that point. Before you do anything else, you need to make any necessary repairs before a single potential buyer walks in the door. So replace those leaky faucets, put in working light bulbs, and patch up drywall holes.
Market the Home
Once you are finished editing all the media you’ve created, then it’s time to start marketing your property.2 Don’t just leave it up to the agent. The more ways you can promote your property, the higher the chances you’ll find that buyer.
- Get a website address and build a website for your property.
- Spread the word via postings on your social media accounts.
- Share your video of the property on YouTube.
- Use Facebook live to host virtual tours and for others to ask questions.
