Ask Rodney Over 15 Years Experience As A Licensed Real Estate Agent/Broker This month’s Top Question Question: If I am trying to sell my house in today’s market, what are the 3 top things I need to do to my house to help sell my house as fast as possible? Answer: Let me begin saying that now is without a doubt a great time to sell a house, especially if you are under the two hundred thousand dollar price range. To categorize the top three things is not really that hard. I would say they are: 1. The number one thing is to make sure you price the house just slightly under what the market dictates it should be. A good figure to use would be 2-3% below current market value. The worst thing you could do is guess what your price is and end up paying for advertising that won’t help. This is the main reason we now offer a “FREE” Current Market Analysis (CMA) for your home. It doesn’t matter to us what size your ad is but it does matter what your asking price is. 2. The second thing is the condition of the property. I recommend that before you attempt to sell, make all necessary repairs to the home. Don’t wait for the home inspector to find things that you know already need fixing. Go ahead and get it ready to sell. Treat the house as if you were the buyer and put it in that condition. Don’t forget to disclose any and all major repairs to the potential buyers before closing. 3. Would go along with step 2. When you are fixing things go ahead and tidy the house up and remove any clutter including in the yard. Have the house in staging condition. If you are not sure what that is, hire a professional home stager to stage the house for you. It is well worth the cost if you want to sell fast.
