Q. My home has been on the market several months. What can I do to keep it from looking like a
stale listing and get it sold?
A. You may know price can be the most important factor in
getting a home sold, but there are other things that can give you a competitive
advantage in the marketplace. Ask for a
copy of my “26-Step Home Marketing Plan” for the complete list. Three critical steps are:
·
Offer incentives: Mentioning in the listing
description that you are willing to pay some of the closing costs, repairs or
inspections can make a big difference in making your home attractive to
buyers.
·
Internet exposure: Today’s buyers are searching
for homes on real estate search websites like www.trulia.com, www.zillow.com,
and www.realtor.com. It is critical that the listing is
re-submitted to as many sites as possible if the price has changed.
·
Fresh photos: This is particularly true if your old
pictures reflect a different season.
Photos from the spring are a red flag to homes in the fall.
