Five
Tips To Help Sell Your House
[1] Buy a
big plastic tub for each room. When a prospective buyer is
on the way, de-clutter by throwing unattractive essentials
like toys and toothbrushes into the tubs, then stow the
tubs in the garage or a closet.
[2]
Develop an escape plan. Decide in advance where you'll go
when potential buyers are on the way over. It doesn't have
to be far ? taking a walk through the neighborhood is
probably good enough. Or get in your car & drive down the
block & watch the house so you can return when the buyers
leave.
[3] Be
flexible about showing times. Setting severe limitations
makes it harder to sell a home.
[4] Use a
lockbox. Even when the showing instructions in the
Multiple Listing Service indicate that practitioners are
to call sellers before showing, there are likely to be
drop-ins.
[5]
Unless it is absolutely necessary, listing associates
shouldn't be there for every showing because it makes it
very difficult to find a time that works for everyone.
