Three Things You Can Do To Make Sure Your Home Doesn’t Sit On The Market.

While the real estate market may not be crashing, it certainly is slowing down a bit. Buyers are recalibrating, stepping back, and rethinking things. Now is the time to be proactive and re-strategize.

Here are 3 things you can do to make sure your home doesn’t sit on the market:

1. Back to the Basics. Buyers are looking at properties online, so create a picture-perfect first impression. Staging, painting, cleaning, decluttering is a must! Entice buyers online with gorgeous inviting photographs to secure that first in-person showing.

2. Move-In Ready. Buyers are sick of bidding wars for properties that aren’t turnkey, so do the little fixes to appeal to the masses. Address the little quirky little things about your property that only you might like. Turn the office into that desirable 3rd bedroom, and vice versa if the space is better suited the other way.

3. Sellers: Don’t Overplay Your Hand. Strong offers will come in, and usually in the first week or two. Don’t waste time or play around. Over-negotiating the strong offers will turn off the buyer and could result in another 30 on the market before another offer comes in.

Again, we don’t believe we’re looking at a market crash. Things are simply slowing down and it’s time to be a little more conscious and strategic.

Everyone’s situation is specific and our team is ready to help you get to your real estate goals as fast as possible with the least amount of stress and the most amount of money in your pocket. Have a great day!
