Selling Your Home in the Spring.

Are you looking to sell your home? We have a few tips to help you make the most of the spring season!

Hire an Experienced Realtor

Before preparing your home for the Spring market, you will want to hire an experienced realtor! A good realtor will serve as your guide through the entire sales process, helping you get your home ready for listing, showing potential buyers and finalizing the eventual sale. This is important given the changing landscape with additional safety protocols during viewings and even virtual viewing options. Now, more than ever, the expertise of a realtor will help you navigate the sales process.

Prioritize Repairs and Improvements

Before listing your home, it is important to go through room-by-room and address any issues such as chipped paint, small holes in the wall, broken fixtures, old appliances, etc. Correcting these minor issues will help your home truly shine when buyers walk through.

Clean and Stage Your Home

Now that you have made the necessary minor repairs, you can start staging your home! Start with the exterior of your home and tidy up the yard, remove any junk and wash your windows! When it comes to the interior of your home, you will want to declutter and do a deep clean. A professional cleaning service can come in handy for this! Once your home is decluttered and clean, your realtor can help you stage it so it appears spacious and inviting.

Consider a Pre-Listing Inspection

Once you are ready to list your home, it can be a good idea to consider a pre-listing inspection. The inspector would conduct a complete visual inspection of all interior and exterior elements. Including HVAC systems, wiring, ceiling, chimneys, gutters, etc. which would help put prospective buyers at ease.

Organize The Paperwork

There is a lot of paperwork when it comes to selling your home. Having all of these documents organized and together for potential buyers will help to speed up the process and allow them to address any questions before the deal is finalized. Permits, renovation or repair receipts, warranties, rental agreements and copies of your utility bills are all good records for potential buyers.
