The 8 things not to do to sell your house fast

Disposing of a house quickly isn’t impossible, it’s just a matter of not making mistakes. The 8 things not to do to sell your house quickly:

1) The price Being realistic and starting from a price that allows the sale in the shortest time possible is the key to everything. many say that it is no secret that in a time of low prices, the more the house remains unsold, the less it is worth

2) Being lazy At this time in the market waiting is not helpful. The first 15 days in which the house is for sale are the ones in which the advertising of a property is most effective and also the moment in which it attracts the most attention. It is necessary to take advantage of this because, playing with the old strategy of “I’m in no hurry to sell and that’s why I’m asking so much” does not work at this time.

3) Don’t play downwards Nothing forces a seller to decrease the sale price, but if you want to sell a house it is better to be competitive in price. If it is the most expensive house in the neighborhood, it is not by playing down that it will sell first. Some recommend starting with an “upfront” price, that is, assigning a price that can be expected in the next six months, in a declining market such as the current one.

4) Get advice Calculating the price of your home can be tricky at a time like the present plus, homeowners are used to attributing a sentimental value to the house that does not exist for buyers. Putting yourself in the hands of a professional or an appraiser to help calculate the appropriate price and arrange tours of the home is usually a good idea. At this time there is a lot of competition in the sale and everything can be useful “against the neighbor” selling the house.

5) Rejecting offers In a declining market if you reject offers, you may regret it afterwards. It is necessary to distinguish between those who really make a coherent offer and those who make a reckless offer, knowing what kind of proposal they are rejecting. Understand if you are dealing with a possible buyer or with a time waster.

6) Calm when showing the house It is not good to give the feeling of exasperation when selling the house, nor to exaggerate in highlighting the positive aspects of the house.

7) Don’t Avoid Professionals Sometimes people run away from real estate agents, but if you don’t want to complicate your life and the sale of your home involves headaches, it is advisable to put yourself in the hands of experts: they help and facilitate the whole process. We will not have to show the house to curious people, nor answer calls from time wasters, nor prepare more signs, nor discuss the price with the buyer.

8) Put different prices in different places If a seller puts one price in one ad and the real estate agency puts another, it generates mistrust. The house should have the same price in all the places where the sale is announced, regardless of who manages it.
