The real estate professional's job is to help you understand the paperwork involved.
These days, buying a house involves a lot more than simply studying houses from real estate ads or going to open houses. Real estate transactions are complex, and contracts are several pages long. A typical contract is about eight or nine pages long, not to mention the pages of reports, disclosures, and addendums.
Showing the House
Your house should
always be available for show, even though it may occasionally
be inconvenient for you. Let your listing agent put a lock box
in a convenient place, to make it easy for other agents to
show your home to homebuyers. Otherwise, agents will have to
schedule appointments, which is an inconvenience. Most will
just skip your home to show the house of someone else who is
more cooperative.
Most agents will call and give you at least a couple of hours
notice before showing your property. If you refuse to let them
show it at that time, they will just skip your house. Even if
they come back another time, it will probably be with
different buyers and you may have just lost a chance to sell
your home.
Try Not to be Home
Getting the House
Ready to Sell
De-Personalize the Property
The reason you want to "de-personalize" your home is
because you want buyers to view it as their potential home.
When a potential homebuyer sees your family photos hanging on
the wall, it puts your own brand on the home and momentarily
shatters their illusions about owning the house. Therefore,
put away family photos, sports trophies, collectible items,
knick-knacks, and souvenirs. Put them in a box. Rent a storage
area for a few months and put the box in the storage unit.
Un-cluttering the House
This is the hardest thing for most people to do because they
are emotionally attached to everything in the house.
Plumbing and Fixtures
All your sink fixtures should look shiny and new. If this
cannot be accomplished by cleaning, buy new ones where needed.
Ceilings, Walls and Painting
Check all the ceilings and walls for water stains. Sometimes
old leaks leave stains, even after you have repaired the leak.
Of course, if you do have a leak, you will have to get it
repaired, whether it is a plumbing problem or the roof leaks.
Carpet and Flooring
Unless your carpet appears old and worn, or it is definitely
an outdated style or color, you probably should do nothing
more than hire a good carpet cleaner. If you do choose to
replace it, do so with something inexpensive in a fairly
neutral color.
Windows and Doors
Check all of your windows to make sure they open and close
easily. If not, a spray of WD40 often helps. Make sure there
are no cracked or broken windowpanes. If there are, replace
them before you begin showing your home.
Odor Control, Pets and Tobacco are main
ones
For those who smoke, you might want to minimize smoking
indoors while trying to sell your home. You could also
purchase an ozone spray that helps to remove odors without
creating a masking odor.
Costs of Repairs
Do not do anything expensive, such as remodeling.
The Exterior of the House
Most real estate advice tells you to work on the outside of
the house first, but unless there is a major project involved,
we believe it is best to do it last.
Landscaping
Is your landscaping at least average for the neighborhood? If
it is not, buy a few bushes and plant them. Do not put in
trees. Mature trees are expensive, and you will not get back
your investment. Also, immature trees do not really add much
to the appearance value of the home.
House Exterior
The big decision is whether to paint or not to paint. When you
look at your house from across the street, does it look tired
and faded? If so, a paint job may be in order. It is often a
very good investment and really spruces up the appearance of a
house, adding dollars to offers from potential homebuyers.
The Back Yard
The back yard should be tidy. If you have a pool or spa, keep
it freshly maintained and constantly cleaned. For those that
have dogs, be sure to constantly keep the area clear of
"debris."
The Front Door & Entryway
The front door should be especially sharp, since it is the
entryway into the house. Polish the door fixture so it gleams.
If the door needs refinishing or repainting, make sure to get
that done.
