Two KEY ELEMENTS are the most important factors when you want to sell your home: PRICE and CONDITION
FIRST: is to price your home correctly. The best way to do it is to use a professional appraisel to evaluate your home. This can cost you around $400-$500. I can help you to determine the correct asking price with a comparison market analysis. It would determine the properties sold in your area dating back not more than 3 months ago.
SECOND: is the Marketing Plan to sell your home. Go through the house and repair any noticeable cosmetic defect. In a down market consider lowering your price and/or making major repairs such as replacing the roof, getting into multiple listings for great exposure and make sure the Agent holds OPEN HOUSES for other Agents as well as to the Public. There should also be a FOR SALE sign and ways of directing potential buyers to a website to view photos of your home.
