What to Consider Before Putting Your Home on the Market
Selling a home is more than just listing it on the market—it’s a strategic process that, when approached with the right guidance, can lead to a faster sale and a stronger return. At The Via Domus Team, we understand the importance of preparation and planning. Here are key things to consider before you put your home up for sale.
1. Pricing Strategy Is Everything
One of the most crucial decisions you’ll make is how to price your home. Listing too high can result in extended time on the market, while pricing too low could mean leaving money behind. Brenda and Michael of The Via Domus Team will conduct a comprehensive market analysis to help you determine the optimal listing price based on comparable sales, current demand, and unique features of your property.
2. Repairs and Maintenance Matter
Before listing, take care of any necessary repairs. Leaky faucets, cracked tiles, worn-out paint, and faulty fixtures are red flags for buyers. Even small issues can signal to potential buyers that larger problems may be lurking. Proactive maintenance shows that the home has been well cared for, which increases buyer confidence and appeal.
3. Have Your Paperwork Ready
Being organized can save you stress down the line. Gather essential documents early—utility bills, property tax information, permits for renovations, and any warranties for systems or appliances. Buyers and their agents often request this information, and having it ready helps move the process forward efficiently.
4. Timing the Market
While real estate is active year-round, certain seasons and market conditions are more favorable than others. Consider local trends, buyer activity levels, and even mortgage interest rates. Brenda and Michael will advise you on the best time to list your home to attract serious buyers and achieve the strongest results.
