7 Seller Tips To Prepare For Buyer Showings

Your client’s home is on the market and you want it to sell fast for the highest possible price. Here are some tips to give your seller to get their home “show ready” for potential buyers.

 

  1. Let in the Light
  • Open the curtains and pull up the shades in order to let in as much as light as possible. This will make the home more inviting and brighter.
  1. Clean
  • A dirty home show the buyers that is not well maintained. You want to make sure to clean the home from top to bottom in order to show the home at its best.
  1. Staging
  • Have the home staged to look more appealing to buyers as this can really make a difference the price of the offers and how quickly you get an offer.
  1. Declutter
  • Remove all personal belongings such as photos or collections. You want the potential buyer to imagine themselves living in the home.
  1. Curb Appeal
  • A buyer’s first impression is made outside the home when they first drive up to the house. You want to make sure the exterior is tidy and welcoming.
  1. Pets
  • Make sure that pets and their belongings are removed from the home as it can be distracting during showings.
  1. Don’t Stay
  • A buyer wants to feel comfortable when viewing the home so make sure the house isn’t occupied by the sellers.
