When it comes to selling a home there are certain things to consider. These things will help maximize your selling efforts.

1. Proper pricing
Putting a home on the market at the wrong price can give you headaches and cause your home to be stagnant. Setting the right price out of the gate will get you more interest and more money.

2. Why some homes sell faster than others
Looking at other comparable homes in your area either actively for sale or sold could give you an idea of why some homes sell faster than others. For example, is there a comparable home on the market that has an additional room or bathroom? Additional garage space? These are things that a good REALTOR® can look at for you. You can also look at these things with the help of the internet.

3. Storage appeals to buyers
Probably the number one thing buyers look for in a home is storage. A home without ample storage can be a turn off to potential buyers. If your storage is limited, try finding ways to increase storage or minimize the clutter that is in your current storage space. 

4. Move in ready homes sell faster and for more money
Nothing turns off potential home buyers more than a home seller that needs a ton of time to move out after close. Home sellers should due their due diligence to be ready to move fast should an offer come in sooner than expected. The general rule of occupancy is 30 days or less. Anything more than this and you are hurting your chances of getting a solid offer. 

5. Staging
In certain price points staging can be a great benefit. While many home buyers can visualize their own items in a home, many can not. Staging professionals can provide you the expertise you need to stage your home. They usually offer options from a flat fee consultation to a full staging where they bring in items and stage the home.

Selling a home is no easy feat. But with the right knowledge you can maximize your sales efforts and get the most money for your home.

Happy selling!
