4 Tips to Sell Your Home Quickly

Price it right

One of the biggest factors that will help your home sell quickly is to price it right. Do your research to find out what comparable homes in your area are worth and then lower it by 15-20%. This will make your house a deal no one can refuse and you are likely to get lots of offers very quickly. It can be hard to lose that much of your home’s value but if you have to sell it fast then pricing it low is the best strategy.

 

Make it seem spacious

Storage space is always a hot ticket item for today’s home buyers so one insider tip is to leave your closet doors open, remove half of your things, and then neatly organize everything that’s left. That will give prospective buyers the illusion of more space and make it easier for them to envision living in your house.

 

Find the right agent

Hiring an experienced and knowledgeable mortgage broker will be key in selling your home quickly. Make sure you hire someone who has a proven track record of success at selling homes quickly and who will use all available resources to get your home seen by buyers.

Tips for Buying a Home With Good Resale Value

When you’re in the midst of buying a home, chances are that selling it are far from your mind. The stresses of homebuying are overwhelming enough without the added headache of thinking about whether future homebuyers will be interested in buying your house once it comes time for you to sell. However, it’s always wise to plan ahead and there are certain features that homebuyers are always on the lookout for. Learn about how to make the best investment possible by buying a home with a good resale value in this week’s blog.

Tips for Buying a Home With Good Resale Value

Location

A good location never goes out of style. As the old adage goes: it’s always better to buy a cheap house in an expensive neighborhood than the other way around. While desirability of locations can and does fluctuate, but looking at the long-term stability of the neighborhood and moving trends can be a good indicator. If an area or neighborhood has remained popular for decades, chances are things won’t change any time soon. Is the area improving? Often, residential neighborhoods lack the infrastructure they need to thrive and so signs of development such as grocery stores and retail shopping can indicate that the area is poised for growth.

Who’s buying homes here?

It’s always a good idea to look at the demographics of homeowners in the area you’re interested in. Is it mostly college students, senior citizens, or working professionals? This will let you know the type of buyer who is likely to look at your home in the future. So if you’re looking at a neighborhood that’s popular with the over 60 crowd, perhaps investing in a 4 story rowhome with lots of stairs is not the wisest move. But if the neighborhood is mostly filled with families with young children then that gorgeous rancher with a huge back yard may prove to be a great investment.

Make sure it’s current

Outdated features can lead to a long time on the market. Nowadays, most buyers are looking for homes with more than one bathroom so unless you want to undertake an expensive renovation, maybe skip over any homes that have fewer than 2. Other deterrants include popcorn ceilings, kitchen and bathroom features in outdated color schemes or bad condition, and carpeting (depending on the application as many of today’s homeowners prefer the look and feel of hardwood floors).
