5 Tips to sell your home

 If you’re on the fence about selling your home, don't be! 
 
1. Hire a Real Estate Professional:  Working with a professional to sell your home has many benefits and takes a lot of the heavy lifting off of your shoulders. An experienced Realtor can often sell your home faster and for a better price than you can on your own. This, in fact, is one of the most valuable tips for selling a home. Just make sure you hire the right agent.

2. Make major repairs if needed:  To help land the best offer for your home, make necessary repairs. When selling your home you only have one chance to make a first impression. 
As your Realtor  I  can walk the property with you and make suggestions for preparing your home to hit the market.”

3.  Depersonalize your walls:  That pink, blue and yellow-colored room may be jarring to a potential buyer. The same is true of sports memorabilia or any other items that might keep buyers from seeing the home as their own. Stick to neutral paint colors and wall decor throughout the house, and pack away knickknacks.

4. Consider professional cleaning: A clean home is inviting to buyers, whereas a dirty home can turn them away faster than just about anything. The easiest way to know your home is spotless and looking its best is to hire a professional cleaning company.
Make sure your kitchen and baths are spotless. Buyers will pay closer attention to these areas. Also, make sure your carpets are as clean as possible. If need be, consider having your carpets professionally cleaned. This is one of those things where spending a few hundred dollars can save you thousands by preventing the buyer from thinking they need to replace the carpets immediately.

5. Price your home right  :  Your home’s price tells buyers more than you might realize. Price it too high and buyers may not even bother looking at your home. Price it too low and buyers may avoid your home thinking there’s something wrong with it.
Real estate agents seem to have the experience and a pulse on local housing markets to help you set a competitive price.
