Sellers Guide

1. How to prepare your home and stage like a pro

You know what they say: you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Preparing your home for sale is hard work, but do it right and you’ll reap the rewards of your efforts in your bank account.

2. Price and market your house or condo (or know how to pick the right agent to do it for you)

 Your home is only worth what a Buyer is willing to pay, but the right pricing strategy can make the difference between how much money is left in your pocket and how much is left on the negotiating table.

3. Be ready to show your home to prospective Buyers

Your home is ready, the price is right, the marketing has worked and the Buyers want to see it. Here’s our best advice for showing your home to potential buyers: Be flexible with showing times, leave your house during showings, make sure your home is always in top condition, open houses and feedback.

4. Negotiate and close on your home

Your hard work has paid off…and you’re getting an offer from a Buyer. The offer will contain some important points of negotiation:

1. The deposit
2. The price
3. The closing date
4. The irrevocable time/date
5. The conditions

Negotiating is a fine art, and if you’ve chosen your agent wisely, they’ll provide solid advice andguidance to get you the price you want. The final price decisions when selling your home are always yours to make, but it helps to have a strategic negotiator on your side!
