Sell Your House For Top Dollar
The best chance to sell your house for top dollar is within the first seven weeks. Studies show that
the longer a property stays on the market, the less the seller will net. Below are 5 main
factors to accomplishing this goal.
PRICING FACTOR
If you want to sell your house for top dollar, it is very important to price your property at a
competitive market value right when you list it.
The market is so competitive that even over-pricing by a few thousand dollars could mean
that your house will not sell. It’s interesting, but your first offer is usually your best offer.
Here are reasons for pricing your property at the market value right from the start in order to
net you the most amount of money in the shortest amount of time.
An overpriced home:
• Minimizes offers
• Lowers showings
• Lowers agent response
• Limits financing
• Limits qualified buyers
• Nets less for the seller
80% of the marketing is done when we decide on what price to list your home. If you are
unwilling to list at current market value, you would be better off not putting it on the market
at this time.
CLEAN FACTOR
Most people are turned off by even the smallest amount of uncleanness or odour when buying
a home. Sellers lose thousands of dollars because they do not adequately clean. If your house
is squeaky clean, you will be able to sell your house for top dollar, faster and net hundreds,
if not thousands of dollars more. If you are planning on moving, why not get rid of that old junk
now so that your house will appear larger? Make more space.
Odors must be eliminated especially if you have dogs, cats, or young children in diapers or if
you are a smoker. You may not notice the smell, but the buyers do! Most agents have a
difficult time communicating with their sellers about the odour. If you employ an agent to get the
most amount of money for you, please don’t take offence if he must confront you about odour
problems.
ACCESS FACTOR
Top selling agents will not show your home if both the Key and access are not readily
available. They do not have time to run around town all day picking up and dropping off
keys. They want to sell homes! The greatest way to show a house is to have a key! When
your home is being shown, please do the following:
• Keep all lights on
• Keep all drapes and shutters open
• Keep all doors unlocked
• Leave soft music playing
• Take a short walk with your children and pets
• Let the buyer be at ease and let the agents do their job
PAINT & CARPET FACTOR
Paint is your best improvement investment for getting a greater return on your money. Paint
makes the whole house smell clean and neat. If your house has chipped paint, exposed wood,
or the paint looks faded, it is time to paint. If your carpet is worn, dirty, outdated, or an
unusual colour, you may need to seriously consider replacing it. Many houses do not sell
because of this problem. Don’t think that buyers have more money than you have to replace
the carpet. They don’t. They simply buy elsewhere.
FRONT YARD FACTOR
Your front yard immediately reflects the inside condition of your house to the buyer. People
enjoy their yards. Make certain that the trees are trimmed so the house can be seen from the
street. Have the grass mowed, trimmed and edged. Walkways should be swept. Debris
cleared away. Remove parked cars. This all adds to curb appeal. If a buyer doesn’t like the
outside, they may not stop to see the inside.
