Tips for Selliing Your Home This Spring

Spring has arrived, and that means more people are getting their homes ready to sell. But with recent shifts in real estate, this year’s spring housing market will be different from the frenzy of the past several years. To sell your house quickly, without hassles, and for the most money, be sure to follow these simple tips:

One of the biggest mistakes you can make as a seller is limiting the days and times when buyers have access to view your home. In any market, if you want to maximize the sale of your house, you can’t limit potential buyers’ access to view it. If it’s not accessible, it could cost you by sitting on the market longer and ultimately selling for a lower price.

For anything to sell, especially your home, it must look inviting. We can give you expert advice on ideal staging for your home. Even updating a room with fresh paint, steam cleaning carpets, or removing clutter from the garage can make a big impact.

The old saying “you never get a second chance to make a first impression” matters when selling house. Often, the first impression a buyer gets is what they see as they walk up to the front door. Putting the work in on the exterior of your home is just as important as what you stage inside. Freshen up your landscaping to improve your home’s curb appeal so you can make an impact with potential buyers.

Finally — and this is probably the most important aspect of selling your home in today’s real estate market — price your home right. If a house is priced right, it’s going to sell. Period. To do this, you have to know what’s happening with home prices in your area and understand the factors that are affecting the market right now.

Bottom Line

Everyone selling their homes wants three things: to sell it for the most money they can, to do it in a certain amount of time, and to do it with the fewest hassles. To accomplish these goals, let’s connect so you can understand the steps you need to take to sell your home this spring. 

We don’t like to brag, but….

At last week’s Today Real Estate Annual Gala we were recognized as having the third most completed transactions (29) out of TRE’s more than 100 agents. We were also in the top ten for dollar volume generated.

Completed transactions is the more important statistic for us, as it represents individuals and families who successfully “made their move with Mari.” While high dollar volume is nice (it helps pay the bills), we don’t focus on the luxury market. Our business involves working with buyers and sellers, who are looking to purchase their first homes or upsize, downsize or serve in the military.

We thank them all for selecting us to assist them with what are often life changing decisions. We would be happy to help you, as well.
