Preparing 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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, place a vase of fresh flowers near the entryway, pop a batch of cinnamon rolls in the oven, have your carpets cleaned. Your agent will scan the property before it is listed for sale to see how you can improve the staging of your property.
- Engage an Attorney. We recommend that you engage an attorney to assure that the permits you need to close on your property are in place. They can also advise you on disclosures and be prepared to go over any offers you receive on your property.
- Disclosures and Inspections. We are very familiar with the legal procedures involved in disclosures and are ready to help you determine what you may need to disclose about your property, as well as suggest home improvement measures before placing your property on the market.
- 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. Moreover, your agent will know what information will be most useful in representing your interests when speaking with prospective buyers.
