TIPS FOR SELLING YOUR HOME QUICKLY

Selling your home is nerve-wracking — even under the best of circumstances. Then add into the mix a short timeline and things become more interesting. There is good news: with less inventory, buyers are snapping up homes for sale across the U.S. at warp speed. So, if you're considering selling your home, now might be a great time to list it. These tips can help speed up the sale of your home and provide top dollar.

The Price is Right

Getting your listing price right from the beginning is so important for selling your home quickly. If you start with a price that is too high, your house can sit unsold, and you'll lose money in the long run. Your real estate agent should provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA) to set a competitive price based on recent sales in your area.

Boost Your Home's Curb Appeal

There's nothing like creating a great first impression, especially when selling a home. Curb appeal is essential for drawing people to your home, so make sure yours shines. Add flowers that bring color to the space, paint the front door, and clean up the lawn. Make the home as attractive as possible for those who drive by because this will cause them to stop and schedule a showing. If a potential buyer does a drive-by and is not impressed with what they see, they won't take the home seriously when considering prospects.

Give Your Home a Fresh Face

Make your home appear more up-to-date and on-trend with current home styles. Paint walls, add new fixtures, and plant fresh landscaping. These are all low-cost items but can help fetch a higher price.With a bit of creativity and simple arrangements, your outdoor dinner party can come together with ease and be remembered by friends and family as a remarkable summer get-together.

Hire a Professional Photographer

Consider hiring a professional real estate photographer to take the images for your online listings. Most people will "tour" a home online before they schedule one in person, so make sure your home looks its best. High-quality images may be an investment, but they will pay big dividends when you sell your home quickly and for a good price.

Clear the Clutter

Make your home appear larger and more inviting to homebuyers by removing excess knickknacks and furniture. You'll be moving soon anyway, so take the time to remove the clutter and start packing things away. This will make your home look larger and more inviting and make it easier to keep it clean.

Make it Sparkle

Deep clean your home from top to bottom when listing it for sale. If you have the budget for a cleaning service, that might be a wise investment, but do everything you can to keep the home clean, at all times.
