4 Ways to Sell Your Home Faster!

Categories: Sellers

Selling a home quickly can be a challenge in any market – but especially today. Heidi Cole, an associate with the Corcoran Group in Palm Beach, Fla., offers this advice for anyone who wants to expedite a sale:

Reduce your asking price – to 10 percent to 15 percent below what similar neighborhood properties are selling for.

Clean up the outside- Update the landscaping. Power-wash the exterior and paint the door.

Find the first-time buyers. First time buyers are the ones who can get loans right now! Advertise on their typical Web sites – blogs, Facebook, Twitter. Use an agent that hires a professional photographer to shoot the house with a wide-angle lens so the rooms look bigger in online photos.

Determine what else you can do to entice a quick close. Be ready to move, offer to pay part of the closing costs, and/or throw in a year’s worth of association fees, offer to buy down their interest rate.
