6 tips before selling your Sacramento house
1. Meet with a Sacramento knowledgeable and experienced real estate broker:
An experienced real estate agent can save you a lot of time and energy by helping you through the pre-listing phase. Coffee Real Estate is here to serve you and help you decide if listing your home is the right option.
2. Make sure you are pre-qualified to buy your next home:
Get pre-qualified to buy your next home before putting your current one on the market. You don’t want to become homeless after your home sells if you can’t be qualified to buy your next home. This is true unless you are downsizing and are going to become renters. Bonus insight on pre-qualifying: when you receive an offer, make sure the buyer is pre-qualified to buy your Sacramento home.
3. Price your Sacramento house correctly:
Listing your home at the proper market value is critical to selling your home within a reasonable time frame. Be cautious of making decisions based on valuations online like Zillow’s Zestimate. Instead, use your agent’s in-depth knowledge of the local area as a resource to set the selling price to meet your goal.
4. Get a pre-inspection:
Home inspections are often a sticking point where a home sale can go wrong. Physically distressed properties may need to be repaired prior to a buyer purchasing the home. A pre-inspection can reveal these potential problems before you list. Many repair issues during the negotiation process can kill a deal.
5. De-clutter, De-clutter, De-clutter:
De-clutter is key to selling a Sacramento house. If your house is cluttered or filled with personal mementos, it can be more difficult for a buyer to picture themselves living there. Putting old, out of date furniture or family photos in storage is worth the effort to help your home sell quicker.
6. Professional photography and video is very important to selling a Sacramento home:
The modern-day home search almost always starts online and first impressions are very important. Make sure your real estate agent uses a professional photographer or company specializing in real estate photography to show your home in the best light.
