How to Sell Your Home For A Higher Price (After it already didn't sell...
It can be accepted as a general truth that the main thing that keeps a home from selling is price. While many Listing Clients consider a minimum bottom line price for their home a MUST, let's take a look at all of the things that can be changed to make that happen.Assuming that you absolutely CAN'T Lower your price, Here's What you MUST DO:
1) Do what has worked all along: Hire an agent who will market your property with the most market saturation. Make sure that they are going to hit all of the print marketing necessary to penetrate deep into the market and dig out the buyers.
2) Target 80% of the Market: Make sure that your agent also gets good marketing penetration online. The agent doing this should have several websites, a blog, the agent must monitor their website traffic, and be somehow accountable to you with regard to how many buyers are finding your property online.
3) Sweeten the pot: Discuss a commission structure that will get buyers agents thinking about nothing EXCEPT selling your home. Adding an extra percentage to the buyer's agent commission will have them staying awake at night thinking how they can sell your home.
4) Consider staging: staging your home may be a viable expense for you if you just haven't had the offer quality that you need. This is something to consider if you are getting tons of showings, but NO OFFERS.
5) Find a name you can trust: If top dollar is your goal, it is best not to risk shopping around for a cafeteria plan of real estate services, you need a full service broker, and you need them NOW! If a full service broker already let you down, it's time to start shopping the agents on their individual merits, but choosing a business model in this case that doesn't offer full service, just won't work out.
