A few ways to maximize the sale of your house this fall season.

On the fence about selling this fall? Today's housing market is different than it was a few months ago, and if you're thinking about selling your house, that may leave you wondering what you need to do differently as a result. The answer, however, is simple. Taking the time to prep your house appropriately and creating a solid plan can help bring the greatest return on your investment. Here are a few tips to make sure you maximize the sale of your house this fall:

1. Price it right. One of the first things that buyers notice is the price of your home because the price sends a message to home shoppers. Pricing your home too high could put you at a disadvantage by discouraging buyers from making an offer. Conversely, pricing your home too low may make buyers worry that there are underlying issues or something wrong with the home.

2. Keep it clean. It may sound simple, but keeping your house clean is another key to making sure that it gets the attention that it deserves. Wash the dishes, make the beds, and put away all of the clutter. Doing these things can reduce potential distractions for buyers.

3. Help buyers feel at home. It's important for buyers to see all of the possible ways they can make your house their next home. An easy first step is to create a blank canvas by removing personal items like pictures, awards, and sentimental belongings. It's also a good idea to remove any excess furniture to help the rooms feel bigger and to make sure there's ample space for buyers to stand and take a look at the layout.

What's the bottom line? Selling a house requires a little prep and expertise. If you're looking to sell your house this season, let's connect to learn more about how to get it ready to list and how to make it stand out in today's shifting market.
