Selling Your Home In Today’s Market?
If you're a Broward
County
home seller in today’s market, you no doubt are asking questions
worthy of genuinely honest and direct answers. "What's the right
listing price for a property in my community? How quickly can I
expect to sell? What sort of things can I do to raise the value of my
home?" Let's look more closely at the answers to some of these
questions.
The Contract
If you have a roof that
leaks, you should fix it before you put your house up for sale. Roof
damage must be disclosed in the real estate contract. If you do not
fix the damage, and it is disclosed in the contract, the buyer may
insist that you replace the entire roof, which will end up costing
you a lot more.
Qualified Buyer
You may have a bonafide
buyer who is on the verge of making a buying decision. It is best to
consult with your REALTOR® in the event that a buyer is
hesitant to sign a purchase contract. Many buyers will want to sleep
on a decision before taking the plunge, and your REALTOR®
is a professional who knows the mindset of such a buyer.
Pets
Much as you may consider
your pet a warm and welcome member of the family, not everyone may
agree. So keep pets away from potential buyers, period! It is a good
idea to sequester them in a kennel or anywhere away from buyers, but
not at the expense of the buyer not seeing and experiencing a
portion of the property.
Pick a Good REALTOR®
Be selective in choosing
your real estate agent, and do not hesitate to ask them questions.
Any question related to the business is a legitimate question. You
want and need a competent, patient and professional sales and
marketing professional in your corner. Their knowledge and skills
should be fine-tuned and honed for positive results, giving you
confidence in their competence.
