5 Tips for Selling Your Home in a Competitive Market.

  1. Price Point is Paramount. When getting ready to sell your home, determining the right listing price is the number one most important element in the process. Rely on your CBRPM agent to know the market and to assist you in making an informed pricing decision.
  2. Appeal to Your Audience. Work with your CBPRM agent to determine how to get your home to stand out. Providing incentives is a great way to draw in potential home buyers. Ask your agent for creative ways to make your home stand out in front of buyers.
  3. Leave a Great First Impression. From the minute a potential buyer pulls up to your home, they start forming a first impression. Make sure the lawn and entrance is in tip top shape. Ask your CBRPM agent to assist you in objectively looking from a buyer's perspective.
  4. Everything is in the Visual. Don't underestimate the power of visuals in marketing your home. 90 percent of home buyers begin their search online so it is extremely important to prepare your home for vivid pictures and video to be posted on websites such as CBRPM and Coldwell Banker on Location.
  5. Hit the Right Note with all Five Senses. Give potential buyers the full experience that focuses on appealing to all five senses. Your CBPRM agent can assist you in showcasing your home to the fullest.
