Consultation and Preparation - Sellers

Preparing your home for sale

Preparing your home for sale can make the difference between a quick sale at full price, and a home that sits unsold for months with several price reductions.

We assist you with resources to prepare your home so that it appeals to potential buyers and maximizes the sale price of your home. 
​
Creating emotional appeal for a home can be as simple as painting, rearranging furniture or clearing the countertops. In some cases, it requires making repairs, completing a renovation project or professional staging.

Potential buyers will compare other homes for sale, and if your home does not compete well, it will be much more difficult to sell. The objective is to present your home as well maintained, spacious, and clean.

Many factors such as ambient light, neutral colors, sounds and odors subtly affect a buyer's impression of your home. Perception is everything when marketing your home for sale.

For prospective buyers to feel comfortable and visualize your home’s possibilities, we provide you with…
