Last Updated on Monday, 24 March 2008 15:22 Written by Administrator Thursday, 29 November 2007 13:26

Preparing Your Home to Sell

Last Updated on Monday, 07 April 2008 22:27 Written by Administrator Thursday, 29 November 2007 12:13

A house that "sparkles" on the surface will sell faster than its shabby neighbor, even though both are structurally well-maintained. From experience, REALTORS® also know that a "well-polished" house appeals to more buyers and will sell faster and for a higher price . Additionally, buyers feel more comfortable purchasing a well-cared for home because if what they can see is maintained, what they can't see has probably also been maintained.

17.03.08
Here’s the myth…”If I have the listing agent write the offer, I’m going to get a better deal on the home.” This is absolutely false for a number of reasons.
