It may have looked good years ago, but replacing that tired wallpaper with a coat of fresh paint is sure to appeal to a prospective buyer of your home.
Seniors looking to sell their homes and move into an adult-oriented community such as Del Webb’s Edgewater should look to consultants like those at Del Webb’s developments as resources to help them sell their homes.
Many older adults have been in their current homes for 30 or more years and may not fully understand the current real estate market.
Del Webb sales consultants can help seniors to prepare not only their home — but themselves — for this important step in life.
FrontDoor.com has ten great, unusual tactics for attracting buyers to your current home for sale.
If you have a home on the market now or are contemplating placing your home for sale in the near future, there’s some anxiety about luring potential buyers.
Home Selling 101 tells us to price your home competitively and maybe even a bit below current market value as home sellers to continue to drop their sale price — smartly priced, your home can attract extra attention now.
But here are some unusual strategies from FrontDoor.com — HGTV’s new award-winning real estate site:
Hold an open house party. Open houses are the norm when selling a home, but some sellers are upping the ante on the open house by offering wine, catered food, live music and prizes. A fancy shindig could start a buzz on your property and make your home memorable.
Take home staging to the extreme. It’s well known that staging your home can help it sell faster, but some sellers are taking staging a step further with an ancient Chinese philosophy. Feng shui stagers rearrange the elements of a home to improve its chi, or energy. Good chi makes potential buyers feel more welcome.
She is an adorable dog, but not every buyer going through your home may think so. Keep pets contained -- or even off-premises -- when possible.
You’ve decided on that perfect community — close to local attractions, full of residents just like you and with beautiful, new homes. You’ve picked the home of your dreams — a floorplan to die for, fabulous amenities and features and living spaces suited to your lifestyle.
One problem. You’ve still got your current home to sell.
While there’s no golden rule or foolproof strategy to selling your home, there are a few things you can do to help the process along:
Price your home smartly. Be realistic in your expectations. You didn’t sell it a year or two ago and what you might have gotten then won’t be what you should hope for now. It’s a buyer’s market now and that means they have less reason to negotiate. Ask a fair price and avoid being passed over.
