Selling your home in the spring? Now is the time to start preparing. Spring is typically the height of the annual selling season. While real estate transactions happen all year, spring represents a frenzied time to sell your home. It is important to understand why and what to expect. Keep these things in mind.
- The change in weather and more daylight allow for a better opportunity for prospective buyers to be out looking at homes. Take advantage of this by improving the curb appeal of your home.
- Spring is also a more opportune time to address repairs, upgrades and any projects that may help make your home more attractive and sellable, let alone add value to the property
- Make space! Declutter and allow the space to breathe naturally. If you are planning to stage your home, you’ll need to get rid of excess and unwanted items.
- There are more homes on the market in the spring, so make sure your home presents well! It’s competing against other homes. That is a key piece of information.
- Are buyers relocating to your area? Many buyers relocate at this time of the year adding to the already growing number of buyers in the market.
- The sooner you get your home ready, the sooner you can put it on the market ahead of other homes. Try to take advantage of those early buyers.
- By preparing now, you’ll also have time to address any unexpected surprises. Start now and you’ll thank yourself later.
