When buyers feel at home, they\u2019re more comfortable and can relate to the space, which ultimately gets them to make an offer.\u00a0Make no mistake, the home sale preparation is more than just cleaning and decluttering. <\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">So if you\u2019re looking for results that end in the sale of your home, come discover how these three keys working together can benefit your bottom line\u2014and ultimately put a \u201csold\u201d sign on your property.<\/span><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4102\" src=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Whats-driving-your-price.png\" alt=\"selling home\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">#1 Key to Selling a Home: Price<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 16\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">So, the first key to selling a home is to make sure it\u2019s priced right. If you&#8217;re working with a\u00a0real estate agent then choose an agent that knows the neighborhood information and can show you the quality listings they&#8217;ve represented. When<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/real-estate-advice-hiring-an-agent\/\"> hiring an agent<\/a><\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000;\">you want someone who has sales and closed deals who can show you how qualified they are to represent your home. <\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now, many times sellers can get in their own way when it comes to the asking price, so leave emotion out of your price, just because you value something in your home it doesn&#8217;t mean others will or it&#8217;s market-worthy. Avoiding\u00a0<\/span>pricing to high because you&#8217;ll linger on the market longer or too low to unload the house; that will hurt your bottom line. Do the research look at other homes on the market in your neighborhood, get an appraisal and ask your local professional before putting a price tag on it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4104\" src=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Whats-driving-your-price-2.png\" alt=\"home staging\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" \/><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">#2 Key to Selling a Home: Home Staging<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0Do as much as you can ahead of time to get your home prepared for sale. It\u2019s just like when you&#8217;re going to sell a car. The car needs to be detailed, the exterior washed, and that it&#8217;s not cluttered with your stuff. Well, the same goes when you are selling a home. The house should always be white-glove clean, organized, showing off it&#8217;s valuable features and maximizing on the home&#8217;s square footage. Think of it this way if you don&#8217;t need a item while on the market, pack it away to save you time when it comes time to move, but more importantly you&#8217;re visibly showing buyers more space in the home, which that&#8217;s what they&#8217;re buying right? Square footage.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Consider looking to the images of those neighboring homes on the market, what do they look like? See how you can mimic homes that were &#8220;just sold&#8221; and stand out amongst your current competition.\u00a0Maybe you need to paint, fix some minor repairs whatever it is <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/renovate-your-home-true-costs-vs-resale\/\">add value <\/a><\/span>and show buyers the lifestyle they could lead if they lived in the home. \u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">When you stage your home first you spend 90% less time on the market, according to the Real Estate Staging Association.
