Thinking About Selling?

When it comes to selling your home there are some things to remember that seem obvious, but still tend to get forgotten in the rush of getting ready and negotiating. Let us review some of the things that are relevant to start.

Check your agents references. You may speak to a couple references, and one agent may stand out from first glance. This doesn’t mean you should start counting your chickens just yet. Finding out what their past experiences are may help you avoid heartache, or allow you to breathe easy. Making sure that your best interest is being taken care of is key.

Scout the competition. What are other comparable houses in the neighborhood and surrounding areas selling for? What do they have and what do you have? Knowing your selling points against these sort of things are important as you may find yourself explaining them to potential buyers.

Your house might not be able to sell for what you think it is worth. Sentimental value does not translate to dollars. This works the same way, that what you bought it for might not be what you sell it for – it could go either way. Markets are funny, even though our emotions might not understand. Prepare yourself now so that you don’t get let down at closing.

Have any other items that you need clarification on? We are here to help you rest assured that when you come to us, you are getting what you want and what you need.
