My top 5 tips for getting top dollar?
If you want to get the MOST out of selling your home, you need to do a little prep work.
Do these 5 things before listing your home so you can get max profit when you sell:
1. Get a pre-listing walkthrough done: Wondering if there’s anything *specific* to your home that should be done before you list? That’s where the pre-listing walkthrough comes in! I’ll take a close look at your home to find anything that could use a little TLC or upgrade before you list.
2. Declutter and depersonalize: Help buyers imagine themselves in your home by giving them a clean, neutral slate. Pack up the clutter and take out your personal decor and family pics to give buyers the best impression possible.
3. Bump up your curb appeal: First impressions matter, which is why you’ll hear us real estate agents constantly talk about curb appeal. But it really does make a big difference, so give your lawn a mow and add some flower planters around your entryway.
4. Start the detachment process: You might not expect it, but selling your home can be an emotional process. This sometimes takes sellers by surprise, so give yourself the space and time to emotionally detach from your home. This makes the negotiations and moving process much smoother!
5. Organize your paperwork: Make sure to grab all of your HOA info, warranties, and utilities so you can have them handy during negotiations. It’s not the most fun, but doing it little by little makes it a lot easier.
These tips are a great way to get your home sold for top dollar in our hot market.
