- An experienced real estate agent can make a difference in how much money you make from the sale — in other words, you can make more.
- Your realtor can help you negotiate the terms of the sale.
- Realtors are knowledgeable about the local market and can help you price your home appropriately.
Use technology to your advantage
In this day and age, mobile apps and websites can be some of the best tools at our disposal.- Home-listing sites like Zillow, Trulia, Redfin, and Realtor.com are all great resources and can get you potential buyers.
- Take panoramic photos with the app 360 Panorama. These kinds of photos improve the chances that potential buyers will want to take a walkthrough.
Work on the indoors
There are a few things you should do to the inside of your home when preparing for a potential walkthrough.- Depersonalize the space. You want potential buyers to see themselves in this home, and having your personal touches on everything may taint that vision.
- Touch up some small things including baseboards, broken faucets, scratched doors, etc.
- You don’t need to do a full remodel, but investing in better kitchen equipment can pay for itself.
Don’t neglect the outdoors
The first thing people see when viewing your home is the yard and facade of the house. Don’t forget to work on these things, too, so you make a good first impression.- Be aware — and disclose to potential buyers — of any easements on your property.
- If you have any damaged trees on your property, you might want to spend some time searching for Angi tree removal services.
- Browse some landscaping ideas for Utah properties. You can choose from several hardy plant varieties that have adapted to the harsh conditions of the Rockies.
- Even adding a gardening area can provide value to your home. Eagle Mountain Utah News has plenty of resources!
