21 TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL HOME SALE!

TO HELP YOUR HOME SELL FASTER AND FOR MORE MONEY, ASK YOURSELF…

1. From the outside, does anything need attention, e.g. painting or minor repairs, to make a good first impression? Do I need new door mats?
2. Is there any landscaping or gardening to consider doing, such as reseeding a lawn?
3. Do the windows and window screens work well and look good?
4. Are major appliances operating properly?
5. Are there any items which are “personal” and might make it harder for the buyer to imagine the home as theirs, such as door mats with our family name, or family photos on display?
6. Are the carpets clean or do they need replacing?
7. Have I cleaned and straightened storage areas and the garage?
8. Have I removed some of the contents of kitchen cabinets to make them look more spacious, and are the cabinet doors attractive or do they need updating?
9. Have I removed excess furniture from rooms and some of the clothes from closets to improve them visually?
10. Have I removed or mentioned to my realtor any attached items that are not included, such as special chandeliers, shelving or garden plants?
11. Have I arranged to keep pets out from under foot?
12. Have I arranged to be out when buyers are being shown the home?
13. Does my realtor know the schools and other features of the neighbourhood?
14. Am I familiar with similar homes on the market?
15. Will the asking price attract buyers while still giving some room for negotiation?
16. Have I asked my realtor for a list of ways I can improve the “marketability” of my home without wasting time and money?
17. Am I ready to disclose any structural defects such as roof, foundation or wiring problems on the “Real Estate Transfer Disclosure Statement.”  [However, information you provide is not an unconditional guarantee.]
18. Have I selected a real estate lawyer?
19. Have I started looking for my new home?
20. What do I need to do to prepare for my upcoming move?
21. If I do not already have a real estate agent, should I ask CENTURY 21 Millennium Inc. to help me find one anywhere in the world?

First Time Homebuyers:

If you’re thinking of purchasing your first home, you probably have a lot of great ideas about what you’d like - such as several thousand square feet of living space, a two-car garage, large fenced-in lot, one or two fireplaces and a panoramic view. But it may be time for a reality check.

Most first-time buyers want their dream home right away. However, that dream home likely sells for several hundred thousand dollars and the down payment is more than you earn in two years. Not to mention the mortgage payments - which are three times your monthly take-home salary!

The best way to deal with this reality is to match your financial capabilities with the home that meets as many of your needs as possible.

Many first-time buyers purchase what is commonly known as a “starter home.” There’s nothing wrong with this approach. In fact, it’s good common sense to avoid buying a home that will stretch your budget to its breaking point. Remember, the starter home is just that - a way to get started in long-term real estate investment.

Let me help you find your first, second or third home!
