Attention Sellers! 📣📣 Don't make selling your home harder than it has to be!
There are a handful of home seller faux pas you can easily avoid once you know about them. I'll quickly expound on the two of the items I find most important.
First, as tempting as it may be, don't overprice your home. That is the number one reason a house will sit on the market and not sell. Remember, your list price can be just the starting point. Getting interested buyers in the door and then negotiating from there gives you much better chances than completely putting them off from ever coming in at all because the price is way too high.
And second, pick the right agent! Repeat after me: not 👏 all 👏 agents 👏 are 👏 the 👏 same! The right agent will work hard for you and your best interests, not their own. The right agent will come up with a competitive pricing strategy for your home. The right agent will hire a qualified professional photographer to ensure the marketing photos are eye-catching. The right agent will recommend minor improvements to show your home in the best possible light and they will most likely know the right people to get those jobs done!
If your agent isn't doing any of those things for you, then they're probably not the right agent for listing your home.
