Want to Sell Your Home?

Here are two great resources to help You Sell Your Home Smoothly.

You have made the huge decision to sell your home and move. This is just the beginning of a huge project that can lead to all kinds of headaches and heartache if you don’t manage it correctly. You also need to make sure your home is at its best before putting that For Sale sign up in your yard. In order to get your home looking its best, you may want to consider repainting. But will repainting help you sell your home quicker?

Many sellers choose to complete several home improvement projects like re-painting prior to listing their home. So you probably should take a long look at the outside of your home with a pen and paper. Do an inspection of your home’s exterior surface.

Is it showing wear and tear? Do you have siding that is falling down? Or is the painting peeling? These are usually good signs that you need to repaint. And if you are seeing these signs, potential buyers will too.

Painting your home will be an extra expense, but it is possible to recoup your investment because the better your house shows, the more it increases your bottom line or the price you request from buyers.

1.Working with a Realtor

If you plan to hire a professional real estate agent, they can provide you with their expertise about completing home improvements prior to selling your home. A realtor will know if a big project is worth your time and investment to sell your home.

When you do the first walk through of your home with your new realtor, make sure to ask if the projects could bring enough income to be worth the cost and commotion in your home.

To help you out, here are some good questions to consider discussing with your real estate agent:

Should I paint the entire interior of my house before selling?

Are there any other repairs that need to be completed prior to listing?

Should you invest in staging services?

Are there any issues the realtor notices that would cause the value of your home to go down?

If you have done your homework, and hired a reputable realtor, it is important to take their suggestions seriously and take measures to incorporate their advice.
