Vancouver East Realtor - Selling Tips For Homeowners

Get your home ready for viewing
Prospective buyers are looking for a place they can call "home".  As a seller, you want to captivate the attention of buyers so you need to make necessary repairs and touch ups on your property.  You want everything to be neat and tidy.  Declutter your home to really open up the space so buyers can picture how they will live in the property. 

Do your homework before setting the listing price
A lot of sellers want more money than their home is worth, if you don't price competitively, buyers looking for homes in the same price point with reject it in favour of other better altnernatives.  Buyers looking at the product won't come to view because it will be priced over their heads.  Therefore resulting in lowering the list price and should it be in a declining market, the new price will be set lower than what the seller could have had at the outset.  Not only this, but the over pricing will end up in a longer selling period.
