Have you thought about selling your home, but simply aren't ready to undertake the sometimes stressful process of getting it ready for the market? Today, we want to give you a few simple tips that can help you get your home ready without all the hassle.

When you go to an agent to help sell your home, they are going to give you a laundry list of things they are going to do to help you sell your house. They're going to tell you about their wonderful marketing plan and the other things they can do to get you top dollar for your home. In reality, most agents are the same. We here at Turning Point Realty Group have a fantastic 89-point marketing plan, a professional photographer, and other great tricks to get your home maximum exposure.

While the marketing plans that agents bring to the table are nice, and often effective, we want to let you in on a secret: Pricing your home right is the most important thing you can do when selling. If you fail to price your home correctly, it doesn't matter how good the marketing is. Unfortunately, many sellers are proud of their home and want to ask too much for it. This little bit of additional value that homeowners think is in their home often comes back to hurt them in the end.

Buyers are very price sensitive. If your home is not priced right, it will sit on the market, and the longer your home sits on the market, the more overexposed it's going to be. What do I mean by that? Well, when your house is overexposed, buyers start wondering if there is a defect because it has been on the market for so long. When buyers become aware of how long your home has been on the market, they will often submit lowball offers, thinking that you're desperate to get it sold.

As you can see, you can make the selling process a whole lot easier by pricing your home correctly from the get-go. We are experts at doing just that, so give us a call or shoot us an email if you want to get the most out of your home sale. We would love to help!
