Wouldn’t you love to sell your home in the least amount of time possible and get top dollar in the process? As we work with our clients, our number one goal (aside from ensuring they are completely satisfied) is to get them the most out of their transaction. For sellers, this means getting the most money for their property, in the least amount of time and without any hiccups in the process.

To achieve that, we employ four key strategies, which I’ve shared with you here that go hand in hand with our commitment to our clients.

Make Your Property Stand Out From the Crowd

Giving buyers the perception of value is very important component of the selling process and the condition of the property is critical. Go through the property, check every aspect and make sure everything is in tip-top shape. If possible, have a home inspection performed to get an idea of any areas needing attention.  Make sure that all necessary repairs are taken care of so that the buyer does not feel anything remains unresolved. Keep in mind, little things should also be resolved such as fixing weather stripping that might have worn down, or patching up holes from previously hung wall art or even just cleaning up an overcrowded garage.

Achieve Maximum Exposure of Your Home in the Market

Make sure you hire an agent that is prepared to invest heavily to make sure your property stands out in the crowd. With as many as three times the number of homes on the market as there are buyers right now, it is essential that your property is outwardly visible and stands apart from the rest. Differentiating your property will make or break your sale and even cause a perfectly viable sale never to go through if your property goes unnoticed by the perfect buyer.

Engage In a Realistic Pricing Strategy That Works

Too many homeowners make the mistake of pricing their home incorrectly. You want to price your home to market but it also must go hand in hand with buyer behavior and market trends. The number one goal when selling a home is to get the home sold and unless there is buyer interest and showings taking place, the chance for a solid sale is slim to none. Be prepared to adjust the price regularly – and review it monthly to decide whether you need to change something.

Make Sure You Are Backed By a Solid Team of Professionals

The best advice I have to offer you is to make sure you hire a strong team or a solid real estate professional that is dedicated to serving your needs. That may sound trite but the truth is that until and unless you have professionals backing your real estate dealings, you stand to go through just another run-of-the-mill transaction with mediocre outcomes. It goes without saying that the desired result is to get top dollar on the sale of your home – and it needs to be achieved effectively, without wasting a single extra minute of your time.
