Selling your home hits differently in the summer, are we right?
If you're planning to take advantage of the hot summer market and sell your home, then listen up!
This month, I'm sharing everything you need to know about selling -- and showing -- your home in the summer.
Here's a sneak peek at our tips:
1) Hire the right realtor. You want an agent who will be your partner from the moment we sign the listing agreement until closing day (and beyond! We become friends with many of my clients and love giving you contractor recommendations, answering local questions and more!). You want your agent to be dedicated, creative and supportive throughout the process.
2) Think about the lifestyle you want to create for a buyer. What do you love most about your home? Chances are, that's what will ultimately attract your ideal buyer, be it the big backyard for entertaining or the kitchen perfect for Saturday morning bagels and coffee. We'll help you stage your home to perfection to give the buyers serious home FOMO 🔥
3) Clean, de-clutter and prepack (you don't need sweaters and winter gear cluttering up your closet!).
4) Plan a short getaway so we can keep your home immaculate for showings. Visit friends for a fun mini-vacation or find a local hotel with a pool to squeeze in some extra summer fun while we make your home shine 🌟
5) Think about what kind of offer terms will be most appealing to you. In the event of multiple offers, the highest offer isn't always best, so consider factors like closing date, contingencies, and escalation clause. Be prepared to review offers objectively and consider more than just the bottom line - you want to have a smooth and successful home sale!
