Home Selling Savvy

  Think about selling your home as a celebration. Celebrations are special moments in life. Special events take time to organize.  When you celebrate a birthday or anniversary there is preparation involved. 
  Similarly you need to prepare your home for Buyers's to tour. Look at your home from the eyes of a Buyer. They are guests of your home. Make them feel welcome. Put out fresh flowers, add a new welcome mat at the front door. Set the stage to reach the Buyer's emotions.
  Look at the windows as the eyes of the home.  Are the windows letting in all the available light? Light affects mood. Help to boost the buyers mood with lighting. Let the light in by having the windows cleaned, open the window coverings and remove window screens.
 Organize your home. Look through every drawer and closet, get rid of things you don't need or use. This will make your home appear clutter free. You will benefit from not having to move things that you don't need now instead of later. 
 Remove furniture from walkways. Open up the space to allow a Buyer to see room for their belongings. Less furniture equals more room. A Buyer will pay for more for space in a home.
 Deep clean your home. Nothing looks as good as a clean fresh home. The Buyer will see your home as a place they can be comfortable.
  Store your family pictures to take to your next home and allow the Buyer to see your home without YOU in it. 
 Remove items from countertops to make your home less distracting to Buyers. Buyers are easily overwhelmed. 
 Look at your home from the eyes of a Buyer. If you need any help seeing through the buyer's eyes ask a local real estate agent for advice.
  I am a listing agent with Realty Executives Tucson Elite. The best advice I have for clients wanting to sell their property is to prepare it. Sell your home for more money in fewer days by putting together a plan of action.
