While there are many ways to attract buyers, signs are far and away one of the most effective. Some sellers fear that a sign will cause strangers to stop and ask to see the home on the spot. That rarely happens since those who see the sign have the same reluctance to face a stranger at the door. They would rather make a phone call to a neutral person such as the agent and make arrangements to see the home later. When you sell, ask your agent about the other benefits derived from using a sign to attract buyers.
Signs pay big dividends.
Many home-buyers face a dilemma when it comes to buying and selling a home. They don't know whether to buy before they sell their existing home, or vice-versa. Some buyers fear that if they sell their present home, they may not be able to find a replacement. While that may seem to be a legitimate fear, take a look at the alternative. That way, the buyer is not obligated to complete the new purchase until the existing home is sold.
