Things to do to help your home sell

We need to get together to see what you need to do to sell your home. Buyers look at homes based on the price range they can afford. Yours has to stand out in the price range and be a better value than any other home in that price range. It has to be spotlessly clean and all the fix up work has to be done, or we have to price it so the buyer can do the work and they get a bargain price for having to do the work. Stuff that is not done will cost you money on the sale. I have people who will help you with things that need to be done if you can not do them. I will advise you as to what to do and where to spend any money for fix ups--most things I suggest will not cost much and will make a big impact in the way the house looks and will attract a better price or a quicker sale. The lower the price the more buyers look at your home and the quicker the sale. There are 5 reasons a house doesn't sell--price, condition, location, terms and marketing. If all of these are in line, the home should sell and give you a fair price. The market is the thing that determines what you home is worth. Houses have to appraise out most of the time, unless you get a cash offer that does not require an appraisal and those are few and far between.
