Because of the sheer value of the transaction, what appears like a mere 3-5% can translate into thousands of actual pounds. That is why it is important to treat the sale of your home with utmost attention. Even if it might seem like a simple matter of listing your property online, we can assure you, getting the best price for your home hinges on many other factors – the most important ones we explain below.
Are You in the Hands of the Right People?
Working with a local, professional agent with lots of experience and that is motivated to sell your property under the best possible circumstances will make a difference in the price you achieve. We have seen it time and again, the way the property is presented to the market, the care we put in taking the photos that will attract the most attention, to the way we position the asking price can all make a difference.
Start Selling First
If you are looking to move on the property ladder, it is ideal to start selling your home first. That way, when you find the right home for you, you have more chances for your offer to be accepted, as you will be seen as a less risky option. This might not always be possible, but it is something to take into account especially in a highly competitive sellers’ market as East Renfrewshire. Buyers compete for homes in desirable locations and being in the best position to move swiftly will give you an edge. At the same time, you will not be rushed when the time comes to accept an offer for your property.
Be prepared for viewings
We have mentioned this before, a home that is beautifully staged for sale will attract more interest and will sell in better conditions. We are happy to guide potential buyers through your property, in fact, we encourage you to allow us to do so. If you feel more comfortable about taking care of the viewings, there are a few Dos and Don’ts during viewings, which we have explained here. This is the most important moment in the transaction so all aspects of the potential buyers’ experience must be cared for.
