Whether your property is an investment or a home, you should always aim to sell it for as much as possible. But that’s easier said than done.
Many factors go into how much your home sells for, including the property itself and the market, but you can still work to maximize your home’s sale value with the right approach.
Keep reading to learn how to sell your property for more.
No single strategy will ensure your home sells for your list price or higher. The market is unpredictable, so the best thing you can do is position it so that the right buyer can come along through effective marketing and sales strategies.
Here’s how you can get the most for your South Florida home with Great Florida Homes.
First impressions are important – and when you’re trying to sell your home, the first thing buyers will see is its curb appeal.
Curb appeal can account for as much as 7% of the home’s value. Improving your landscaping, siding, and other exterior elements helps your property stick out and show the level of quality you’ve put into the property, which makes them more eager to see the inside.
Plus, improving curb appeal is something you can do to almost any property, unlike major renovations, expansions, or construction that change the interior of the house to make it more desirable.
Buyers want turnkey homes. Renovations come with a time investment, can vary in cost, and add stress to an already stressful time for buyers. Plus, it’s far easier for people to visualize their new life in your property when they don’t need to plan major renovations or improvements.
Consider adding a new coat of paint to old walls or cabinets, updating the bathroom or kitchen appliances, finishing the floors, and ensuring everything works and looks as new as possible so you can get the best return possible.
Open spaces and empty rooms can make it hard to think of a house as a home. Where will the couch go? Can I fit my bed and a desk in the master bedroom? The fewer questions buyers have to ask themselves about making your property work for them, the easier it is to get them to see it themselves.
Staging your South Florida home can increase your home’s sale price by as much as 20%, with most seeing a 5-15% increase without a significant investment.
Working with an experienced real estate agent is the simplest way to ensure you’re getting the maximum return for your property. Agents evaluate your home and the market, recommend cost-effective preparations, and help you avoid additional or unexpected costs associated with the selling process.
The housing market is incredibly volatile, especially in a dynamic and desirable market like South Florida.
