As a real estate expert with decades of experience, David Kushner notes
that the difference between selling your property relatively quickly
with a good price, or not being able to sell it at all, often comes down
to a couple of small aspects, aspects that anybody can work on if they
realize their importance.
Spend Some Money on It
Since you often have to sell your property due to financial reasons this tip may sound contradictory. However, spending a bit more on your property can actually help your property stand out from others in the neighborhood. Whether you are hiring a landscaping professional or a pool builder, you can add to the value and “uniqueness” of your property, making it a much more intriguing from a real estate standpoint.
Offer a Little Extra
If you have quality equipment in your home or other valuable home appliances, maybe a car that you also want to sell, try to sweeten the pot by offering them to your potential buyers. There are also certain warranties that can be transferred to the new owner - home appliance warranties for example.
Be Ready to Move Out
When you invite a potential buyer into your home, it often helps if they see an environment they can potentially move into fairly soon. This implies not just the impending start of the process of you moving out, but also high quality insulation and good electrical and plumbing conditions.
As David Kushner notes, if you want to make your house more attractive in the eyes of your potential customers, covering your bases with the above mentioned tips might help you out.
