5 Ways for Sellers to Lure More Buyers

Daily Real Estate News | Wednesday, March 07, 2012

Pricing your home realistically will most certainly get potential buyers through the door, but how do you get them to fall in love with the home? A recent article at U.S. News & World Report offers some of the following tips for sellers in enhancing their home’s appeal.

Add curb appeal: "Make sure the house is cleared of winter clutter, that windows are washed, that the front door is painted or clean,” says Brad Knapp, regional vice president for the National Association of REALTORS® for Ohio and Michigan. “You have to give the house good curb appeal.”
Declutter: Remove clutter from the home so that buyers can actually see what all the home has to offer. Any excess belongings of the sellers should be stored in the garage or in a storage unit.
Be careful not to offend: "Hunters and fisherman often have game hanging on the walls," Knapp notes. "Some people are offended, so get that off the walls and into the garage."
Consider staging: "It might behoove [sellers] to hire a professional stager to help them," says Robert Simon, a professor at Cleveland State University. "You have to get it right so it looks lived in, but definitely not cluttered."
Complete routine maintenance: Make sure your sellers complete any routine maintenance projects before the home is listed. Also, sellers need to realize that "people don't care if you spent $15,000 fixing the roof. It's worth nothing," Simon says. "The market expects the roof to be in tip-top shape. You have to go above and beyond."

The construction has begun at our new office so we are working from home until the dust clears. We are very excited about our new space and the location. The Town of Tryon owns the building and they are dividing up the space formerly occupied by Bravo Interiors into 3 rental units.
