The first step in selling your Whistler home is to market it correctly.
As a sellers agent I can tell you the most important factor in marketing your home is listing it at fair market value. Your price needs to reflect the market, and the property's worth. The key is to generate buyer interest early.
The other important factor is the condition of your home. Make sure that your home looks ready to be sold. It's time to go through and decide what is staying and what is going. Now is a good time to start packing personal effects, a clean 'show' home will trigger the emotional purchase desire that leads to a financial response. In some cases 'Staging' a home can pay dividends.
Fix any defects (peeling or faded paint, cracks, stains, etc.) Condition alone can sometimes prompt fast buying decisions. Are there inexpensive upgrades you can do maxamise the 'Curb Appeal' of your property?
There is a perfect buyer out there for every home and yours is no exception. I work with you in determining how to best position your property to sell, ranging from price & marketing to overall property aesthetics.
The more exposure a well price home has, the more offers it receives. With more offers you get more choices. You get to pick the price and terms that work best for you.
Learn how to negotiate the best terms for all parties involved. Terms are another factor which may be adjusted to attract buyers. If you insist on getting your asking price, think of what you can offer to the buyers, for example, improvements you’ve made, or even offering seller financing at a lower than market interest rate on a portion of the sale price. Convince them why they should be paying the price you have set.
Lastly, get the word out. Make it known that your house is for sale - tell friends, family, co-workers and neighbours - they might just be the perfect buyer!
