The successful sale of a beautiful home is always fulfilling, especially when it's your home. The value of a home isn't the only selling point, and, some times, not even one of the top five selling points. To sell your home, you want to do what I call, selling the sale. If every desirable house in Los Angeles were bought just because it was desirable, there would be no homes on the market. Price, location, lot size, etc all have something to do with the sale of a home. But, these alone don't close the deal.
What do buyers want to see in homes? Themselves, of course. And, in LA, they want to see themselves living in style. So, it is the seller's job to make the whole property, house and all, as stylish and inviting as possible.
Here are 4 great tips for selling the sale:
1) Paint the house, inside and out. Buyers, most often, want to see a house that is ready to be lived in, that is crisp and well cared for. A fresh coat of paint can mean the difference between a house that looks desirable and one that looks ignored.
2)Mow the lawn. Yes. Seriously. Mow the lawn. Water the plants. Clip the hedges. Again, would a buyer want a house that looks cared for or ignored?
3)Stop at the flower market. Decorating the house with very nicely arranged flowers set around a few different rooms gives a sense of style and luxury to any space.
4)Clean up. Keeping your house clean, surfaces dusted, windows clean and so on helps prospective buyers to feel comfortable as they walk around.
