Showing Tips for Sellers
Get your listing in showing shape with these simple tips.

IN THIS PACKAGE:

Don’t assume that your know what to do when it comes to getting a house ready for showings. Even if you’ve sold before, it’s often difficult to evaluate your own home. Here are some tips from stagers:

Lighten up. Some people like to live in dark houses. Leave the shades up and the drapes opened. Homes show so much better with light. −Teresa Boardman, Saint Paul Home Realty, St. Paul, Minn.

Size up the competition. Walk through model homes in your area to see what professionally staged homes look like. You can get a variety of great ideas to prepare your home for sale. −Randy Schulenburg, Mortgage 1st Realty Inc., Elgin, Ill.

Define the space. Creatively define each space to highlight its use. Create a mudroom that is neat and orderly, a home office workspace, or a kids afterschool room with chalk boards and desks. −Elizabeth Lord, Carolina Farms & Estates, York, S.C.

Add simple curb appeal. Thoroughly clear all little branches, rake the leaves, and trim the bushes. Every landscaping detail proves that you care, and this translates to buyer appeal! −Beverly Carlson, Carlson Properties, Abilene, Texas

Give it a power wash. I bought a power washer three years ago, and what a great investment. I always offer it to my clients. You’d be surprised how much better a house looks after a good bath—especially the garage doors. −Jim Cheney, Saint Francis Property, Santa Rosa, Calif.

Q&A:

Q: price reduction
How long should one wait before reducing the price on their property, particularly if you are not getting any offers?

A:
Properties priced at market are typically selling within two weeks. If they are not getting offers and lots of showings in that time period it is time to seriously evaluate what needs to be done to get increased activity and or an offer. Sometimes it is price and sometimes it is a combination of price and other factors such as the condition of the property, the availability when a buyer wants to see the house, and marketing activities. The changes should be made immediately so the listing does not become stale. All feedback from buyers and agent should be considered when making this change.
