The Word from The Warrens...

Is the housing market half-full or half-empty?

When you're reading it's a buyer's market, don't begin to ever think that as a seller, you don't actually control the outcome.  The secret is all in your perception and your willingness to accept and follow the same basic principles that apply when it's a "Seller's Market".

  1. Realize that selling a home is a business transaction.  You cannot let it be influenced by emotion.
  2. Properly price your home to sell.  Remember what it's worth to the market does not always equal what it's worth to you.  Your realtor is trained to assist in reviewing all data so you can see a clear picture.
  3. Emphasize positives and showcase the home's unique features.  Utilize staging and professional photos to enhance your online presence and to maximize showing opportunities.
  4. Bring everything up to expected levels of quality and condition.  Some updating may be advisable but be careful to not get carried away.
  5. Be 100 percent prepared before the sign goes in the yard by anticipating possible buyer objections.  Consider doing a premarket home inspection to uncover any unforeseen issues.
  6. Spend time getting to know your true competition.  It is imperative to understand your home's "peer group".
