Getting Ready To Sell Your Home

If you are ready to sell your home, you might be wondering how to get started with this process. There are many ways to make the selling process faster and end up with the highest possible sale price. Consider the following tips to make selling your home as easy as possible.

A great realtor is a fantastic resource that knows how to market homes in your specific area. You definitely need to find someone experienced in your local market and someone media savvy that will use every available resource to get your home sold quickly. Not only should they market the home via MLS, they also need to have the house up on sites such as Redfin, Zillow and even Craigslist or Facebook. Open houses might be another tool they will use to get potential buyers into your house.

If you will be selling a home in Fredericksburg, Kerrville, San Antonio or anywhere in Texas Hill Country, consider calling Nixon Real Estate and scheduling an appointment. They have three decades of experience helping clients sell and buy homes throughout Texas Hill Country.

While you might just want to sell a home as-is, this isn’t always a good way to ensure a quick sale. Sometimes, it is wise to invest in an upgrade, particularly in rooms such as the master suite and the kitchen. These rooms tend to give you a good return on investment, so consider making some changes. For instance, if your kitchen is dark and out of date, repaint walls and colors with a more neutral color scheme and add new hardware to the cabinet doors. Adding granite or swapping out appliances for newer models also is a good idea. If you can only afford one major change, consider adding a fantastic stove or oven.

Stage your home so that it looks as generic as possible. The reason that model homes look so appealing is because they are free of clutter, clean and decorated with a neutral color palate. Remove every trace of your personal life from your home before it goes on the market. Pack up photographs and other knickknacks, clean out closets and remove extra furnishings to make rooms appear larger and more open.

Pack up excess items from every room as well as the closets, but don’t forget about the yard and even the garage. Remove the weeds, add a few pretty potted plants, paint the entry door and do some general sprucing up. You really want to make a fantastic first impression, and a good looking front yard attracts buyers and gets them excited about your home. If the inside looks as good as the outside, it will be much easier to sell a home quickly.
