Selling Information

In order for you to get the most amount of money for your home, you must price it competitively right from the start. Reducing the price afterwards will only create a negative affect in the eyes of potential buyers. What can you do to sell your home faster and for closer to list price? Here's a list of the top 10 things you as the seller should do:

1. Keep it Clean

Every room should be neat, spotlessly clean and dusted. Steam clean the carpets and wax the floors if necessary, wash the walls, vents, and light fixtures. Pay special attention to your kitchen and bathrooms.

No time to clean? Hire a professional to do it - it's worth the money!

2. Lose the Clutter

Have a garage sale or take old furniture, clothing and knick-knacks to the Salvation Army or Goodwill. Purge your home of unnecessary items.

3. De-personalize your Home

Put away any family photos, trophies, collectibles and souvenirs. Make your home "anonymous" so potential buyers can envision it as their home. This will also remove clutter and create more space.

4. Freshen-up

Add a fresh coat of paint to clean and brighten up your home. Choose neutral colours and make it consistent throughout the home.

5. Make the First Impression Count

Strong odours and finger-printed windows can ruin a sale. Pay close attention to pets and cooking smells.

Do not allow smoking in the house, it is the single, biggest turn-off for potential buyers! Light delicately scented candles when your house is going to be shown.

6. Give it Curb Appeal

Keep your lawn trimmed and flower beds weeded. Get rid of the junk laying in the driveway.

7. Create the Illusion of Space

Remove excess furniture to make rooms feel more open and replace any items that are not appropriately sized for the room.

8. Make it Modern

Ensure the decor of your home is modern and tasteful. Use neutral tones on your walls and floors and add colour with removable items such as throw pillows or bedding.

Create a minimalist and contemporary space.

9. Doggie Don'ts

Take your pets with you when your house is being shown, or at least keep them outside. A barking dog will quickly put a damper on an otherwise positive showing!

Pet owners need to take special care that the house is odour-free.

10. Beautify your Backyard

Keep the lawn, hedges and flowerbeds manicured. Store gardening tools and kids toys. While nice landscaping will not increase the dollar value of your home, it will help sell it!
