Calling all future home sellers: I’d like to discuss how to create a bidding war when selling your house. It’s important to realize that this process is a team effort between you and your agent, so let’s walk through some steps together to make it happen.

1. Complete inspections and necessary repairs. You should have thorough home, sewer, pest, and roof inspections done and addressing any issues that they uncover. This demonstrates to potential buyers that your property is well-maintained and ready for purchase.

2. Stage your home. Even if you’re living in it, staging can make a significant difference. You don’t need to overhaul your furniture, but simple adjustments like rearranging, painting, and adding decor can enhance its appeal.

3. Price it right. Proper pricing is key. Aim to slightly undercut the suggested price to attract a broader range of buyers. This strategy generates excitement and increases interest in your property.

4. Market aggressively. Let your agent handle the marketing efforts, including broker opens, weekend open houses, neighborhood canvassing, and online advertising. This allows them the freedom to execute their marketing plan effectively.

Remember, selling your home is a collaborative effort. Trust your agent’s expertise and work together to maximize your chances of success. If you have any questions or need further assistance, don’t hesitate to call or email us. We’re here to help you through the process!
