As A Seller...

As a potential seller you should know:

• Activity is the highest when a house first comes on the market. As a homeseller you want to make sure you are in a position to make that initial activity work in your favor..

• Pricing your home properly is most important in getting it sold quickly. A home that is overpriced will sit on the market. Buyers see it as inconsistent with others in the same price range; agents will view it as overpriced and stop showing it.

• Take a look at your house as if seeing it for the first time. See it through a buyer's eyes. The initial impression buyers get as they walk through the front door and if it seems well maintained has a big impact. You want your home to look neat, uncluttered and clean. As a homeseller, it is important to understand the marketing importance of "packaging". Improving the physical appearance of your house before it goes on the market goes a long way in getting it sold quickly and for a good price.

• Getting the word out is essential in selling your home. It is important to have an agent who will agressively market your home using a variety of marketing techniques and venues.

• In today's market, many people feel that they can sell their home themselves...and they very likely can. What they don't realize until they get past the selling part is that that is just the beginning of the transaction. There are many steps that must be taken to get all the way to and through settlement. It takes a knowledgeable, conscientious agent to know what the next step is, when to take it, and to make sure all parties involved are doing what needs to be done to assure a smooth transaction and closing.
