 The secret for Home Sellers in the present real estate market in the Highland Park, Mt. Washington, Eagle Rock, Silver Lake, Glassell Park and other Northeast Los Angeles Communities is this:

5 Tips For First-Time Sellers.

At first the task seems daunting because of today’s real estate market: You haven’t sold a home before, the market looks complex, and what worked for owners 3 or 5 years ago seems inappropriate today. Keep in mind the value of a good Realtor/e-PRO bringing you a specific detailed plan on marketing & merchandising your real estate.

What steps should you take? Here’s a baseline list to get you started. Owners have done it but remember all the legal liabilities that goes with being a home seller.

  1. Define Your Goal. Do you want the highest sales price — or the biggest check at closing? They’re not necessarily the same. Imagine that two homes sell for $300,000, but one owner agrees to replace the roof. The owner who sold without such costs got a bigger check at settlement. The bottom line: To have a successful sale you must have a strong negotiator in your corner that is a ‘local’ Realtor.
  2. Times Have Changed. Today’s real estate marketplace is radically different when compared with 5 years ago. Purchasers now use the Internet, receive seller disclosure forms, get home inspections, and are routinely represented by buyer brokers. The result is that buyers are better prepared than in the past. The ‘local’ Realtor makes the difference in many aspects in bringing value to a seller.
  3. Sparkle And Shine. Imagine going to a supermarket and seeing dusty fruit or aisles filled with old shelving and cans. It doesn’t happen because the grocery store knows how to present its goods. Sellers must do the same. Get rid of things you don’t want to move, organize closets and storage areas, and clean everywhere. The payoff is a higher sales price.
  4. Mechanics Count. Buyers expect everything to work. Home inspections are now a fact and what buyers miss home inspectors will catch. Fix things now and they won’t be an issue in the future.
  5. Think Broadway. When buyers see your home, it’s showtime. They want an environment where they can see themselves. Given them a show where everything is painted, arranged, and attractive, a home where the only issue is when to move in. A factor that a Realtor as an outsider is critical in giving based on trust, integrity and true service.
