Three Tips for a Quick Home Sale

6Did you know that 9 out of 10 buyers will begin their search for homes for sale in Pensacola online? In today’s hyper-connected world, you may be wondering how sellers can be just as savvy as the online house hunters.

When it comes time to selling your home fast, and for the right price, the best solution is to work with an agent who understands local market conditions. Sure, we all know that right now it is a seller’s market and that price gains are slowing. It is still important to look at local conditions, right down to the homes and condos that sold next door and down the street.

Another tip for a quick home sale is to focus on the first few weeks. Because there’s not necessarily an overwhelming amount of inventory to look over, buyers often become suspicious of homes that site.

Lastly, put yourself in a buyer’s frame of mind. Because 9 in 10 buyers search online, they know what features are standard in homes like yours. Before you list it is important to see how your home compares to the competition, and realistically think about repairs that would be worth while.

Home Renovation Tips to Save You Time & Money!

repairsPeople choose to renovate their homes for a variety of reasons. Some homeowners are handy and renovate as a hobby, others are simply ready for a change and then there are the ones who do it to increase the value of their Pensacola Beach home for sale.

Whatever your reason to renovate may be, you should know that there is a fine line between a smart repair and one that could turn into wasted dollars.

First, functionality will usually trump style. Both prospective buyers and tenants alike are more inclined to choose a home that is energy efficient over one that has been decked out in ultra-modern finishes.

Once you understand that principle, it is time to start the remodel process. Typically a home’s kitchen and bathrooms are the hot ticket items that can make or break a sale, so it is important to set the tone early with quality repairs.

If a complete overhaul is out of the question, look to simpler things. You would be surprised to find what a fresh coat of paint and a well-kept lawn can do for your home.

Are you ready to sell your investment real estate in Perdido Key, Orange Beach or the surrounding areas? If so, our agents will be happy to walk you through the process of what sells and what sits.
