Professional Advice to Sell Your Dallas or Fort Worth Home Quickly!

Selling your home can be a bittersweet time, whether you’re selling to get out of foreclosure or opening a new chapter in your life. Once you’ve made the decision to move however, you’ll want to sell your home quickly! This advice from our real estate team will take some of the stress out of this daunting task.

Price it Right

One of the most important factors in selling your home quickly and to the right buyer is getting the price right. Too low and you’re not going to get much profit, while an overpriced property just won’t get the right buyers in through the door, forcing you to deal with lowball offers for months on end.

To determine a good market value for your home, one of the best things to do is look at similar type homes for sale in your area – and remember to look at recent sales, not just what people have their homes on the market for. Think about how your home compares to them in critical areas like the number of bedrooms, the size of the living space, and the quality of your kitchen and bathrooms. This will help you get a good general idea of where you should price your home for the market.

Remember that buyers are very aware of market conditions and make use of highly-informative apps like Zillow and Redfin, which means that they’ll be well-educated on the expected prices for homes in your area. You can up your price slightly if you have the time to wait for a great offer, but slightly underpricing your home can get you much faster results if you want a quick sale.

Stage Your Home and Yard

This is where a lot of hard work and some expense comes into the sales process. Your home should look like a showroom to potential buyers, so it needs to be in great shape. You want every person who walks into your home to be able to envision their life in that space. The best results come from:

• A professional deep cleaning where your home is scrubbed from top to bottom
• All beds made with fresh, clean linen
• Removing all clutter and personal objects, as well as organizing garages, cabinets and closets
• Creating a neutral space using light, natural colors (this can mean painting walls and ceilings, as well as covering furniture with throws)
• Repair any major and minor issues in the home, from replacing lightbulbs and filling in cracks to replacing damaged carpeting and structural issues
• Clearing up the yard, including cutting back trees and shrubbery, mowing the lawn, clearing away toys and tools, and planting flowers

Create Curb Appeal

First impressions count, and your potential buyers will make a snap decision about your property as soon as they arrive, so it’s essential to create a great look for your home right from the curb. This means:

• Making any necessary repairs to your front door/porch area
• Ensuring that there is sufficient lighting
• Maintaining the greenery (cutting grass, removing dead plants, etc.)
• Adding an eye-catching touch like tubs of bright flowers, a newly painted front door, or a neat pathway.

Know Your Selling Points

You know your home and neighborhood best, so think about what you have that buyers would love, as this will help your sales pitch on an open day. Good pointers include the safety of your neighborhood, friendly neighbors/good community feel, great schools in your area, transport links, parks, and amenities like restaurants, kid’s entertainment, coffee shops and commuting time to business centers.
