Thinking of selling? Be sure to plan ahead and prep your home for top dollar. HERE ARE SOME HELPFUL TIPS HOME seller's CAN RELY ON.

Thinking of selling? Well, you’re in luck as the housing market in Metro Vancouver sure benefits sellers as buyer demand is high. Even though we see a seller’s market in many areas, be sure to plan ahead and prep your home for top dollar! Here are some tips potential home sellers can rely on:

Review Your Finances
If you are still paying off your existing mortgage, don’t worry as there are many options available depending on the type of mortgage you have. Be sure to talk to your lender before proceeding to see what options are available to you.   

Meet With a Realtor®
It’s crucial to work with a Realtor® you feel comfortable with. Whether buying or selling a home, you can trust that your Realtor® will ensure the transaction is completed competently and professionally. Count on a Realtor® to be committed to serving with integrity, and who can deliver reliable knowledge about your local housing market.

List Your Home
Another important seller’s tip is to list your home at a competitive price. I don’t recommend listing a home too high, otherwise it will spend excess and unnecessary time on the market, and vice versa if listed too low. Setting a fair price is recommended, this will ensure proper exposure and attract potential buyers. 

The First Impression is the Only Impression
Making a good first impression doesn’t start with the interior, don’t forget that potential buyers have already judged your home before walking through the front doors. Be sure to boost your curb appeal and take care of small tasks like cleaning up your garden bed, washing your driveway and replacing any outdoor burnt lightbulbs. 

Clean, Declutter and Depersonalize Your Home
Potential buyers want to see everything, meaning that no area of your home is off limits from the eyes of a house hunter - including closets! Maximize every area of your home by cleaning up, reducing overall clutter, and removing any family photos or memorabilia. Potential home buyers want to imagine themselves living in your home, so be sure to maximize your space. 

Pricing Your Home

Don't forget, there are several other homes for sale competing with your property. I will help you price your home competitively to attract qualified buyers. The way I do this is by generating a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) report, which will show you a range of prices being paid for homes in your region.
