South Florida Home Seller Guide

Selling a home can be stressful and time-consuming, but it doesn't have to be. As the housing market continues to rebound, experts are encouraging homeowners who would like to sell their homes now to consider preparing for their sale early. The goal is not only to provide you with some tips on how to prepare your home for sale in order to make the process smoother, but also offer an informative guide that will help you through each step of selling your property. 

1. Consider the timing of your home sale - when do you want to move and what are the best seasons for selling a house in your area?

In this, consider whether you want to relocate quickly or take your time. If you want to move quickly, boost your chances of selling by getting the most attractive price and anticipating where demand will be in future.

If you need more time to save for a new home but still have an important deadline for selling your property, you may want to consider lowering your price and accepting a lower profit in the short term.

If you need more time to find another home, then be honest with potential buyers by telling them how long you have left at the property.

2. Prepare your home for showing by decluttering, making repairs or improvements, and updating furnishings and decor

Get your property ready for showing. This means cleaning up clutter and making any repairs or improvements that are needed. It can also mean updating furnishings and decor so your house will be more attractive to potential buyers. To give yourself plenty of time to complete necessary repairs, try to begin this process several weeks in advance.

3. Choose an agent who will make a good impression on prospective buyers

The agent you choose should be prepared to show your home quickly, and who can effectively market the property. They will need knowledge of the local real estate market in order to let potential buyers know what similar homes have sold for in recent months.

4. Price your property competitively 

Yes, pricing your property is key ! That is what we do here at List-A-House®. We sell Real Estate! To start, we do a CMA (Comparable Market Analysis) of your property to determine the highest price possible. We meet, we talk, we sell. It is that easy. 

Stress free is our motto. We make it as easy as possible for you so you don't stress and you may concentrate on the purchase of your next home or move. 

5. Get ready for open houses with advanced preparation such as scheduling showings, setting up brochures, and preparing food ahead of time

It can be a good idea to make any necessary repairs or improvements before the event. That will help to attract potential buyers who are looking for a better deal than what was previously available. If you don't make any improvements, you may be at a disadvantage if another sale has recently been completed.

6. Find out how much you can expect from a sale by doing research online or consulting with an agent

If you're not sure what to expect from a sale, ask your real estate agent for research on how much the average home in your area sells for.

7. After the sale procedures

Once the sale has gone through, finalize any remaining items like canceling utilities or returning rental equipment

Conclusion

Whether you're looking to sell your home or not, it's important to know the timing of when is best for selling a house in your area. What are some tips that will help make your home more appealing? How do you find an agent who will represent you well and get potential buyers interested?
