Top Tips to Speed Up the Home Selling Process

If you’re a homeowner looking to sell your beloved property, there are numerous factors that should be considered in order to maximize the value of the home. Here are some tips that will help you complete your sale in a quick and efficient way.

Maintain a “Show-Ready” Appearance

A prospective buyer shouldn’t come through the door to see half-washed dishes sitting in the sink or dust littering the bathroom. It should always be ready for visitors at all time. Be sure that you take the necessary time to walk through the house and check for areas that need a little scrubbing. Your eyes might already be accustomed to your home’s interior so it helps to have a family member or friend double-check for you.

Your Kitchen Is a Priority

An updated and remodeled kitchen can provide a significant boost to the asking offer. While it may seem like a costly investment at first, buyers tend to favor the kitchen area. Use this to your advantage. If you’re not looking to invest as much into your kitchen, consider repainting it and replacing the cabinet hardware as those are most inexpensive purchases that you can make that still provide value.

Your Front Porch Counts Too

Showcasing a dirty home will almost always dissuade a potential buyer. Don’t forget about the exterior of your home as well. Before a buyer walks into your property, they’re going to scan the outer walls and front porch. A majority of first impressions will be made here. Once they enter the home, they could be left with a sour taste in their mouth and ultimately be distracted the entire tour.
