Repairs Sell!

almost 20,000 homes to choose from so their choices are limitless and often overwhelming.  Buyers are looking for the most house for the least amount of money and they are finding it.  Homes that sell quickly in this market are first and foremost, priced correctly.  If your house is not priced correctly, it is practically invisible to buyers.   A good Realtor will be able to do a market research study and will be able to determine the proper pricing of your home.  You don’t need to spend alot of money to make your house stand out from the pack.   The very first thing you should do is clear all your clutter and then do a thorough cleaning of your house from top to bottom.  Make it sparkle and smell really good!  You don’t want a potential buyer walking into your home and being immediately turned off by the smell and the dirt.  Cleanliness goes a long way.  When the market was going strong, buyers were willing to look over this detail but not in todays market!  Another thing to do is get outside and do a little work on your yard.  Make sure your grass is always neatly manicured and there is a little landscaping so your house has nice curb appeal.  If your house is beautiful on the inside, but ugly outside you will miss alot of potential buyers who do nothing by drive by.   Try to do a little updating to your bathrooms and kitchen.  Replace fixtures with pretty, up to date ones.  Changing the fixtures alone will make a huge difference.
