Selling your home is obviously a complex process. Any time that you are dealing with something that is worth so much money, you want to make sure that it gets done right. Although there are numerous different things that you need to pay attention to and many factors that go into making the sale, there are still ways to get it off your hands quickly if you need to. With a professional real estate agent that knows the area, anything is possible! Here are some tips for selling your home quickly in the Comox Valley.
Go the extra mile
Everyone always talks about curb appeal these days when it comes to homes, and for good reason. It is one of the most important aspects of your home from a selling perspective. If you want it to fly off the market, then you need to go the extra mile and increase that appeal in any way possible. I recommend driving by your home after looking at other comparable Comox Valley property listings in the neighborhood. What sets you apart? What makes your home look beautiful? Would you buy it again after seeing everything in the area? There are a few things you can do to immediately make it look better. Try :
- Putting new siding on
- Fixing the roof
- Adding a beautiful garden in the front
- Putting on a beautiful wooden door
- Adding a stone walkway
There are a million options. We have beautiful homes here in the valley so the competition is fierce.
Cater to the masses
Ever wonder why politicians don’t normally take an extreme stance on things? It’s because they want to cater to as big a part of the population as possible. Sure, an extraordinary colour scheme might appeal to some people, but it won’t appeal to many. By keeping your home neutral, you give yourself a much better chance of finding a buyer. The main reason is that buyers will see it as a blank slate that they can craft into something that they like instead of something they will have to work to transform. Make sure to stick with white as much as possible and don’t make too many crazy additions.
Be realistic
