Tips for Selling Your Home in Edmonton


Many clients worry that when they list their homes, it will be months before they get interest and maybe longer before a sale. My goal is to help you market your home for a quick sale so you can move on to your next home. Here are some of the best ways to ensure your home sells as quickly as possible: 


Cosmetic Touchups

A fresh coat of neutral paint can work wonders. If your walls look tired or are scratched or damaged, cosmetic touchups are an affordable way to make your home more appealing. 


Staging

Be sure to clear away clutter and rearrange furniture to make rooms look as large and clean as possible. Your ultimate goal is to help potential buyers imagine what their own belongings could look like in the home. If you’ve already moved out and the house is empty, you may want to consider renting staging furniture to make it feel more comfortable. 


Working with an Edmonton Realtor You Trust

Hiring the right realtor to sell your home can be the difference between a headache and a smooth, stress-free process. Home sale transactions are always unique, which means you need someone who can help you through any unusual circumstances that pop up. Be sure to hire someone you know you can count on as a trusted advisor, and make sure they’re willing to dedicate time and energy to your sale. 


Ask Your Real Estate Agent for a CMA 


A Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) allows your real estate agent to give you an approximate value of the house before you put it on the market. This often involves a comparison of similar homes in the neighbourhood to see how much they’re currently selling for.


In the meantime, you can also get a free home evaluation right away. Just head to my home evaluations and give me some details about your home and property. 


Market Your Home 

If you’re working with a professional real estate agent in Edmonton, you won’t have to handle much of the marketing yourself. Your agent should provide services such as interior and exterior photography, MLS listing management, and scheduling of walkthroughs and appointments. 


Prepare for Showings

Chances are good that the first person who comes through won’t be your buyer. This means you’ll need to prepare for multiple showings. Your real estate agent will help ensure showings are booked at convenient times, such as when you’ll be out running errands or at work. This way, buyers won’t feel uncomfortable and you won’t experience any interruptions to your daily life.
