Five Factors To Sell Your Home
The speed of your sale will dependent on five key factors We’ve outlined them below, so that you can know what to expect – and how we can help:
1. Price
The single most important factor to consider is the price tag: How much your home is worth Setting the right price can ensure that your home attracts buyers, doesn’t lag on the market, and gets you the highest possible return Remember, though, that overpricing can delay or even prevent a successful sale.
2. Location and Condition
Location, location, location The location of your home can’t change, but you do have full control over its condition In fact, a professional stager can help you sell your home faster by making it more appealing to buyers Ultimately, we know that homes sell faster when they are in pristine condition.
3. Competition
Buyers decide which homes to buy and how much they are worth through the time-honored method of comparison shopping The pool of available homes is constantly changing If there are homes like yours on the market, it’s crucial that your home rises to the top in how it looks and how it is marketed.
4. Timing
Sometimes it’s a buyer’s market, and sometimes it’s a seller’s market The market conditions when you’re ready to sell can make a big difference in how quickly the process goes. We always stress the importance of timing your sale correctly.
5. Marketing Strategies
A comprehensive marketing campaign gives your home maximum exposure, which is essential for a timely sale But if the five factors mentioned above are out of balance, even the greatest campaign will fail.
We focus on providing in-depth information to ensure your home is priced right, in optimal condition, better than the competition, and prepared to be marketed and to remain in line with the current market.
Comprehensive Marketing For Your Home
We combine our large network, traditional advertising, and cutting-edge digital marketing to give your home maximum exposure .
Today’s buyers demand 24/7, 365 access to information in the convenience of their own homes That’s why we developed the most innovative, comprehensive marketing plan in the business, combining traditional and digital marketing, to drive these “connected consumers” to your listing, regardless of where they’re searching for a home!
By using this customized approach, we’re better able to find the buyer who will pay the most for your home.
The Importance of Effective Pricing
While it may be tempting to price high at the outset to try and beat the market, the best strategy is to price your home correctly from the start
Here are some important reasons why:
Buyers are always waiting for something new to be listed.
The most activity and the highest and best offers typically come in the first 21 days a home is on the market . Same if you overprice your home and then reduce the price, you lose precious time as well as the excitement that a new listing generates.
A house takes on a reputation surprisingly fast. Even after you lower the price, prospective buyers may be wary, wondering why your home has been on the market for so long . You have lost a strong negotiating position and, in the end, may even have to settle for less than market value . That’s why it is so important to make the most of your entry into the market
But instead of making an offer on your home, these buyers are out viewing others that they perceive to fall within their price range . By overpricing, you are helping to sell other, more competitively-priced homes. You are highlighting their value at your own expense
A disparity between your asking price and your home’s appraisal value can quickly become a deal-breaker.
We must be able to defend your price to the appraiser, and the lender must be able to justify it to the market. If your home’s appraisal value is lower than your asking price, your buyer could back out at the last minute.
The higher your price, the fewer qualified prospects you’ll have.
Buyers compare houses. They are looking for the home with the most amenities at the best price
Interested in a more nuanced pricing strategy? All you have to do is ask one of our specialists for their help
A Buyer’s Perspective On Home Values
The current market value of your home is determined by the selling prices of similar homes in your area . Factors that do not affect the value of your home include:
The price you paid for the house.
The majority of houses sell for market value, which is constantly changing and may not support your original purchase price at the time you choose to sell
Your need for money.
The current value of your home is dictated by the market, not by your need or desire to turn a profit.
Your desire to recoup the cost of maintenance-related repairs.
The purpose of maintenance is to preserve a home’s value, not to create value . The cost of maintenance cannot be added to the market price of your home.
Your desire to recoup the cost of home improvements.
Make improvements for your own enjoyment, not with the hope of passing their full cost along to future buyers
How much it would cost to build your home today.
The bottom line is, you cannot sell your home for more than buyers are willing to pay
How attached you are to your home. Any attachment you feel will not be shared by the buyer . Sentimental value does not correlate with a higher selling price.
Is Your Home Priced Correctly?
At The Raines Group, we will do everything we can to sell your home quickly, at the best price, and with no hassles.
The one thing we can’t control or change is the market
Even though we know how valuable your home is, its value from a selling standpoint will be determined solely by the market.
To help you decide whether your home is priced correctly, The Raines Group has generated the following “levels of seriousness . ”
1. The “Maybe This Seller Isn’t Serious” Level
No showings and no offers. Agents and potential buyers are not even interested in seeing your home. They believe they can get more for their money elsewhere.
2. The “It’s Okay...But I Think I’ll Keep Looking” Level
Either 10 to 12 showings and no offers or just a few showings. Potential buyers believe they can still get more house for their money, and they are willing to continue looking.
3. The “This Is It!” Level
Showings, second showings, and offers in the first four to six weeks. Congratulations! You have placed your house on the market at the right price Your price even supports their belief that your house might be their next home They are now ready to buy
Keep in mind that, even if your home is priced correctly today, that may change with the market. As we list your home, we will keep you informed on the market, how it’s changing, and what we can do to strategize to get an effective result for you
