FAQs
How should I prepare my house before selling it?
First impressions are crucial in business, especially in real estate. Prospective buyers, whether walking through your house or viewing it online, will be on the lookout for reasons to lower their offer or walk away. It's important to ensure that the HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems are all in working order. Each room should appear clean, decluttered, and free of visible damage.
Should I order a home inspection?
Opting for a pre-sale home inspection is a wise decision to secure the best possible price for your client's home. Many buyers hesitate to purchase a property without an inspection report, and some prefer to hire their own inspector. It's better to identify and address potential issues beforehand.
How long will it take to sell my home?
The time it takes to sell a house can vary, ranging from four to six weeks once it's listed. In a hot market, a sale might happen within a week. Conversely, if the market is slow, or if there are issues with negotiations, exposure, or the condition of the house, it could linger on the market for months.
What is the selling price of my home?
The selling price of a home is influenced by several factors, including its location, the selling prices of similar-sized homes in the area, its age, and condition. Major repairs can decrease its value. Market dynamics, such as supply and demand, also play a significant role. As a realtor, your responsibility is to inform your clients about these factors and list their house accurately.
Why does my home’s assessed value differ from its market value?
The assessed value is determined by a public tax assessor, usually for taxation purposes and is often reassessed annually. In contrast, the market value is the price agreed upon by a willing buyer and seller. It's common for these two values to differ. For homeowners, a higher assessed value means higher taxes, but it can also increase the home's market value when selling.
