SELLERS' TIPS

How to Get Top Dollar for Your House
I am often asked why certain homes sell for more than others.  for instance, how could a home without a pool sell for MORE that the same model with a pool?  It's really relative to what is considered VALUE.  Sometimes it's personal, as in the case where the buyer may value other amenities such as:  more yard space, RV access, or more living area.  Maybe the upgrades in the home create enough "emotional" appeal to make the buyer "fall in love."  THE MORE BUYERS A HOME APPEALS TO, THE BETTER THE CHANCE FOR A HIGH PRICE!  That's my job...creating buyer appeal.

Let's talk about...What Affects Value?
COMPETITION (supply & demand) is a very big factor.  Unless you are the only game in town, you must be aware of the competition.  Take a look at the market from the buyers' eyes to improve your appeal.

LOCATION can be extremely important.  Some of the reasons value has held so well in our area is because of the wonderful climate, ocean breezes, excellent schools, and reasonable commute distance to Tampa and Orlando.  Homes on interior streets or cul-de-sac locations appeal to MORE buyers than those on busy streets.

CONDITION is high on the list of influence.  General pride of ownership shows.  Buyers like to "feel" good in the home they are considering.  Work to be done (paint, carpet, landscaping) may look like more aggravation and cost than most buyers want to face.  Usually, just a few dollars more spent in the right areas will be returned by a higher sales price and a faster sale.  The NEWER the home looks, the MORE buyers it will attract.  "FIXING UP" to prepare your home for sale is my expertise.  My clients have ALWAYS been rewarded by a much higher return on the investment of correctly chosen carpet & paint.  Only a few touch ups are necessary.  DON'T OVERSPEND!  I have excellent sources for reasonable prices for most improvements.  Call SUSAN before you spend!

TIME is an important factor often overlooked in VALUE.  The seller transferred or in in financial difficulty may have to offer a lower price to encourage a fast sale.  VALUE DEPENDS ON THE MOTIVATION OF THE SELLER!

CAUTION!!! One frequent problem is "Falling in Love" with a new home before your home is "ready" for sale...Then the pressure is on!  PLEASE CALL ME EARLY to PLAN according to your PERSONAL NEEDS including finding your NEW HOME.

PROMOTION is my department.  How your home is marketed to get the MOST buyers to find the APPEAL and pay for the VALUE.  THAT'S WHAT I DO BEST.  I am committed to getting TOP DOLLAR for your home.
