Sometimes a price that is on the low side will actually attract more buyers and you will find competition in bids that will at times drive the price higher than you might have expected. A home is only going to sell for the price a buyer is willing to pay. To make sure your home attains this high value you will need to showcase your home. This means that you should consider repairs, painting, cleaning rugs, making space in your home so that it is at its best presentation for Realtors and their buyers. A bright, clean, and well presented home will bring a higher bid offer.
First impressions are very important.
It is common to see homes with poor paint and in obvious need of repairs bring down a price on a ratio of 4 to 1. It is important to attract buyers immediately to your home. The freshness of a home when it is just placed on the market is a key to obtaining top dollar. Realtors and Brokers will preview the property at its open house and then in the first few weeks there will be maximum interest in showing it to clients. A home that is properly showcased and priced will draw offers very quickly in the current Marin market.
