Be Proactive – Get your house inspected

You will have more time to do your research and find the best price for repairs instead of finding out problems while your house is under a contract.

Most likely, the buyers will request an inspection prior to closing; any problem with your house will encourage them to become more aggressive in negotiating, wanting to be compensated for every little defect they find. They will ask you to pay for repairs by their terms or negotiate your price down.

Save some money, be proactive.

What a seller controls

The condition of his/her house
Make the buyers’ first impression count. Keep your house in the best showing condition possible, little changes will help. Not need to spend a lot of money to keep your house clean and de-clutter. Don’t forget, a pleasant aroma also makes a good impression.

Availability for showing
Is your home easy to show?
Set a positive tone with the buyer, remember, this will be the first contact with your property. Make it easy for them to see, how yours, could be their future home. Be flexible on timing.

Price
How much you paid for your house has little to no effect over its present value.
A Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) will show you where your home stands in comparison to others. Having knowledge of the current market will help you decide on the right price.
