5 Make or Break Decisions You’ll Do When Selling Your Home

2/5/2018

Decisions! Decisions!

 

This is what you’ll be faced with when selling your home in Minnesota. Every choice you make as a seller will have a significant impact on how smoothly the process goes from start to finish. At Home Avenue, our goal is to help you make the right decisions so that you can maximize your profit and sell your home quickly. Below are five make or break decisions that you’ll make from the time you put the sign up until closing day.

 

  1. Who is Your Realtor?

The first step most homeowners make when selling their home is finding a reputable realtor. Realty companies like Home Avenue with at least 20 years of experience in the Minnesota market should be a good starting. Experienced realtors provide answers and solutions.

 

  1. For Sale by Owner?

If you are going the for sale by owner route, then you’ll need to educate yourself and do your homework. Our comprehensive For Sale By Owner How-to-Guide can help you launch your sale and stay on track until you close the house. Ask us about our other real estate resources as well.

 

  1. Commission or Flat Fee Real Estate Agent?

One of the keys to a successful home sale is to reduce how much you will pay your real estate agent. We recommend going with a flat fee realtor. You will save thousands of dollars when closing the sale without sacrificing quality service and professional results.

 

  1. When is the Best Time to Sell?

If you have no immediate rush to sell your home, you should discuss your situation with a Home Avenue realtor. We can help you decide if now is the best time to sell your home. Traditionally, springtime is the best time to sell your home. With spring on the way, you may want to list your home as soon as possible. We can help you weigh the pros and cons of selling now.

 

  1. Should You Get a Pre-Listing Inspection?

The answer is yes. A pre-listing inspection can help you determine what upgrades you need to make to the home before placing it on the market. If you take care of all the issues in your home before showing it, the buyer may make a faster decision, and you’ll sell the house. A home in excellent condition will increase buyer confidence.
