Prepare to Sell

You can do a lot to increase the appeal of your property and to create a lasting impact on potential buyers.

What To Do To Prepare:

The following are a couple of factors to keep in mind when listing your property for sale:

1. Curb Appeal.
   Keeping your landscape pristine, and adding creative touches to your yard, such as colorful annuals, will create an immediate impact on passers-by and potential buyers.
2. Property Repairs.
   Simple upgrades such as window repairs, polishing the doorknobs, and a fresh coat of paint in the most frequently used rooms will instantly brighten up the property.
3. Cleanliness and Staging.
   Keep your property uncluttered, sweet-smelling and well-lit from top-to-bottom. Pay attention to details: put away the kitty litter or dog food, wipe down that bathroom vanity mirror, have your carpets cleaned, etc. Your agent will scan the property before it is listed for sale to see how you can improve the staging of your property.
4. Pre-inspections.
   A pre-listing inspection puts you in control. By identifying potential issues before your home goes on the market, you have the opportunity to make repairs, price your home strategically, and avoid unexpected surprises during the buyer’s inspection. Being proactive often leads to smoother negotiations and a more successful sale.
5. Showtime.
   Presenting your property to potential buyers is a job that we will take care of for you. Buyers feel more comfortable discussing the property with the agent, if you are not there. Moreover, your agent will know what information will be most useful in representing your interests when speaking with prospective buyers.
