Typically January is a pretty slow month and then the “spring market” historically kicks-off after Super Bowl. This January, however, we have had several sellers contacting us to come over a good month or two before they are ready to list to get an idea of what they need to do to prepare their home for market.
We love to receive these calls, because often times we can save our sellers money by telling them upfront what projects are the biggest return on investment and which are unnecessary. Our personal experience is that decluttering, staging, cleaning and interior paint will make a house sell faster and for more money. Your first showing is online – so a decluttered, clean house that shows well in professional photos will get the most showings and more showings often leads to a faster sale for more money.
According to a new survey by the Consumer Reports National Research Center, sellers can increase their home’s value by up to 12% by doing some simple steps before listing- and decluttering is FREE and can increase a home’s value by 3-5%! That is $15,000 on a $300,000 home. Check out the video below for more details!
