How to get the most for your home.

      How to get the most for your home.

The most important fact affecting price when selling a home is timing. Prices and demand for homes are currently high so the safest advice may be, “Hurry up and sell before the market changes. “

Other sound advice would be to get your home cleaned, de-cluttered, touched up where necessary and professionally staged.  The “Model Home” look attracts more buyers and higher prices than does the “Lived In” look.  Don’t underestimate the talents of a professional home stager.  The average professional stager is good and the best are worth their weight in gold.  Solano County prices for staging services typically run between $1200 and $3000 depending on what you’re getting.  Though not included in “Staging”, cosmetic enhancements such as a little tasteful, strategic painting and/or landscaping can go a long way.  Give us a call we can help choose and coordinate these professional services for you. 707-332-8301

In a seller’s market like now, don’t price your home too high unless not selling is an option for you.  In a “Sellers’ Market” buyers will compete for your home and bid the price up if you let them.  If priced too high your home could sit on the market long enough to see the market turn down.  That’s dangerous now because the market could change very quickly.
