3 Basic Tips To Sell Your House Quickly – Tried And Tested
2 Dec 2020
Real estate continues to see cut-throat competition year after year. But according to studies, the most practical tips are what will help you sell your house quickly in Lancaster. So, we did our homework and talked to prominent professional real estate experts. Here are their recommendations on how to sell your property fast.
Sell Your House Fast
- “Professional” Is The Way To Go
We understand that you’re being careful in the way you’re shelling out to push the sale of your home. But for this step, a bit more will be beneficial. At least, when it comes to having a professional photographer take photos of your abode.
Remember, these photos aren’t for mere memorabilia. For a lot of your future buyers, said images will serve as their first basis for the visual appeal of your property. Surveys in the United States reveal that almost half of the real estate buyers in the continent (and in the last 5 years) go online before using any other medium. And a whopping 87% to 89% of them rely on photos as they make decisions for a showroom booking.
Make those images count!
- Squeaky Clean
Never underestimate the power of a clean home, especially in the context of trying to sell it. A dirty house is an instant buyer-turn-off. Nobody will want to buy a messy place. And nobody will want to do business with a home-owner who doesn’t care enough to let their own place be spotless.
Go with a full sweep from top to bottom. Vacuuming the floor, carpets, underneath pieces of furniture, and whatnot is okay. But also include mopping the ceiling and windows, and wiping tabletops, and counters.
Beddings and cushion covers should be fresh and crisp. Even if you’ve just taken them out of the wash, if they have faded colours, they’ll give the appearance of unkemptness. So stick with new duvets and pillow covers.
On the same note, everything in the bathroom should be immaculate. Everything. Use toilet bowl cleaners, tile care products, and stainless steel polish for that extra sparkle.
Another tip: If you’re a pet-owner, by all means, go out of your way clean up stray fur, paw prints, litter, and more. When showing your home to potential buyers, keep pets outside (and safe in their outdoor sheds).
- Depersonalize, Declutter, And Revamp
Buyers want to imagine themselves as the owners of the properties they inquire about and visit. Thus, seeing your family’s personal belongings won’t do much good in that respect.
Photographs of the fam on the mantle, drawings and report cards magnetic on the fridge, knitted cushions and quilts with the names of the members of the clan, your kids’ drawings on the walls, etc. These are all heart-warming and worth carving into stone. Still, for the purpose of selling your house, they’ve got to go. At least, for the time being. Simply store them neatly in boxes and away from the visitors’ periphery.
This ties-in with decluttering. Aside from cleaning up the area, get rid of unsightly clutter. You may think this part’s tough because they’re not necessarily throw-aways. They are, however, items that create an appearance of disarray. And no buyer wants to see that.
Scattered toys, piles and piles of paperwork on desks and in drawers, unused stacks of boxes and cartons, pieces of clothing hung outside clothes cabinets, shoes and shoe racks (these should’ve been taken care off during the de-personalization stage), the list goes on.
Don’t worry. If you feel that these items hold much importance to you and your family, you can just keep them temporarily.
A bit of encouragement here – once you finally find the right buyer, feel free to unbox those items in your new home!
