efore you put the for sale sign in the yard make sure your property is ready. Many home owners under estimate how important their homes listing photo’s make on the sale of their property. Have you studied the listing photos of homes in your area?

Substandard listing photos are a disadvantages to selling your largest asset.

Taking great listing photo’s “can make the difference between winning a buyer and losing an opportunity” Photographer Doug Marshall. .

A professional stager can transform a home and showcase its best features for its photo shoot and open houses. How do you achieve a premium price for a home?

By increasing the buyers desirability factor setting it above the competition and stimulating buyer interest? Staging statistics in 2014 indicate that on average professionally staged homes sold for 10% higher than unstaged homes and DIY's. Not taking the proper steps to prepare your house to go on the market is a crucial mistake that will cost you both a loss of your valuable time and money .

Prospective buyers will assessing the yard front to back and every squares foot of the home.

If attaining top dollar and shorter time on the market is your goal, clean, repair and update the property for sale. If upgrades have not been made in five years it will affect the marketability , sale price and days on the market. As a professional stager I view many poorly prepared homes in listing photo's and open houses. Often sellers don't go far enough

R A L L O D TOP

The Real Estate Market Has Changed . . .

Buyers are far more discriminating, and a large percentage of the homes listed for sale don’t sell the first time. It’s more critical than ever to learn what you need to know to avoid costly seller mistakes in order to sell your home fast and for the most amount of money.”

THE 9 STEP SYSTEM TO GET YOUR HOME SOLD FAST AND FOR TOP DOLLAR elling your home is one of the most important steps in your life. This 9 step system will give you the tools you need to maximize your profits, maintain control, and reduce the stress that comes with the home-selling process:

S

1. Know why you’re selling, and keep it to yourself.

The reasons behind your decision to sell affect everything from setting a price to deciding how much time and money to invest in getting your home ready for sale. What’s more important to you: the money you walk away with, or the length of time your property is on the market? Different goals will dictate different strategies.

However, don’t reveal your motivation to anyone else or they may use it against you at the negotiating table. When asked, simply say that your housing needs have changed.

2. Do your homework before setting a price.

Settling on an offering price shouldn’t be done lightly. Once you’ve set your price, you’ve told buyers the absolute maximum they have to pay for your home, but pricing too high is as dangerous as pricing too low. Remember that the average buyer is looking at 15-20 homes at the same time they are considering yours. This means that they have a basis of comparison, and if your home doesn’t compare favorably with others in the price range you’ve set, you won’t be taken seriously by prospects or agents. As a result, your home will sit on the market for a long time and, knowing this, new buyers on the market will think there must be something wrong with your home.

3. Do your homework.

Find out what homes in your own and similar neighborhoods have sold for in the past 6-12 months, and research what current homes are

listed for. That’s certainly how prospective buyers will assess the worth of your home.

4. Find a good real estate agent to represent your needs.

Nearly three-quarters of homeowners claim that they wouldn’t use the same realtor who sold their last home. Dissatisfaction boils down to poor communication which results in not enough feedback, lower pricing and strained relations.

5. Maximize your home’s sales potential.

Each year, corporate North America spends billions on product and packaging design.

Appearance is critical, and it would be foolish to ignore this when selling your home.

You may not be able to change your home’s location or floor plan, but you can do a lot to improve its appearance. The look and feel of your home generates a greater emotional response than any other factor. Clean like you’ve never cleaned before. Pick up, straighten, unclutter, scrub, scour and dust.

Fix everything, no matter how insignificant it may appear. Present your home to get a wow” response from prospective buyers.

Allow the buyers to imagine themselves living in your home The decision to buy a home is based on emotion, not logic. Prospective buyers want to try on your home just like they would a new suit of clothes. If you follow them around pointing out improvements or if your decor is so different that it’s difficult for a buyer to strip it away in his or her mind, you make it difficult for them to feel comfortable enough to imagine themselves an owner.

6. Make it easy for prospects to get information on your home.

The prospects calling for information on your home probably value their time as much as you do. The last thing they want to be subjected to is either a game of telephone tag with an agent, or an unwanted sales pitch.

Make sure the ads your agent places for your home are attached to a 24 hour prerecorded

hotline with a specific ID# or a MLS listing# for your home which gives buyers access to detailed information about your property day or night 7 days a week without having to talk to anyone. It’s been proven that 3 times as many buyers call for information on your home under this system. And remember, the more buyers you have competing for your home the better, because it sets up an auction-like atmosphere that puts you in the driver’s seat.

7. Know your buyer.

In the negotiation process, your objective is to control the pace and set the duration. What is your buyer’s motivation? Does s/he need to move quickly? Does s/he have enough money to pay you your asking price? Knowing this information gives you the upper hand in the negotiation because you know how far you can push to get what you want.

8. Make sure the contract is complete.

For your part as a seller, make sure you disclose everything. Smart sellers proactively go above and beyond the laws to disclose all known defects to their buyers in writing. If the buyer knows about a problem, s/he can’t come back with a lawsuit later on.

Make sure all terms, costs and responsibilities are spelled out in the contract of sale, and resist the temptation to diverge from the contract. For example, if the buyer requests a move-in prior to closing, just say no. Now is not the time to take any chances of the deal falling through. Your agent can advise you on this.

9. Don’t move out before you sell.

Studies have shown that it is more difficult to sell a home that is vacant because it looks forlorn, forgotten, simply not appealing. It could even cost you thousands. If you move, you’re also telling buyers that you have a new home and are probably highly motivated to sell fast. This, of course, will give them the advantage at the negotiating table.
