5 Things To Do Today To
Get Your House Sold
1. DON'T
WAIT
Every Realtor will
tell you truthfully that the longer your home "sits" on the
market the lower your price will be. Statistically homes get
the best price if they sell within 30 days of listing so it
is critical that you take action you list your home
or right now if you have already listed. The market is not
going to get better.
2. DON'T "DO IT YOURSELF"
In a Sellers market this may be an option for you but in
today's changing buyer's market it is imperative that you
use a Realtor to bring buyer traffic to your door and you
use a Professional Home Stager to market your home so that
the few buyers who enter in will have a desire to buy. Don't
waste buyer traffic by having a home that is not
professionally staged!
3. SEE THE BIG PICTURE
If your financial advisor guaranteed you would make
at least 6% on your money over the course of the next two
months by investing in a stock would you do it? Did you know
that by spending as little as $2000 on professional home
staging up front, statistically you will sell 50% faster and
for AT LEAST 6% more than you would have without
professional staging? For a $200,000 house that's $12,000
for spending less than $2000 on professional staging!
4. GO WITH EXPERIENCE
You are competing now against 5 times more homes (in
some areas) than you would have been last year. It is more
critical than ever to use professionals who are highly
trained in what they do to work with you. In the home
staging industry, professional home stagers who have gone
through HSR Certification have gone through training that is
typically 5 times longer than the average staging training
available. HSR Certified Home Stagers are most often
professionals with a long history of success and training in
home staging and redesign and that is why they choose the
Home Staging Resource. In the Real Estate industry choose a
Realtor who specializes in your area with a long history of
success.
5. USE TECHNOLOGY
So many buyers are savvy enough to search the home listings
online FIRST before they waste time driving from home to
home. If your home does not have multiple, beautifully
staged, pictures that entice the buyer on Realtor.com or
similar sites than you might as well lower your price right
now. If you have old "before" pictures of your home, than
have your home stager take new "after" pictures and email
them to your Realtor to post anew.
