It is no secret that the Real Estate Market in La Jolla has slowed. Does this mean you cannot sell your home? Absolutely not! You are going to have to be smart about it and listen to your La Jolla Realtor.
There is a reason some homes get offers and others sit on the market forever. To avoid being the latter we have a few suggestions for you to ensure the successful sale of your La Jolla home.
1. Dont restricting access to your La Jolla home. Do install an electronic lockbox, we can tell who has been in your house. Many times Realtors have buyers that show up last minute or they are out showing properties and the criteria changes making your home an ideal home to show. Do you really want to miss this opportunity?
2. Ensure that your Realtor has great photographs of your home. More than 80% of homebuyers are starting their search on the internet and they are making judgments from the on-line photos that Realtors upload to the internet. Some photo donts include:
· Photos of your La Jolla home not rotated upright
· Photos that are not focused, too dark, over exposed or not straight
· Only having one photo of your La Jolla home uploaded
· Photos that are not adjusted for the Internet resulting in long load times
· Photos of cluttered rooms, blinds drapes closed, and the toilet seat cover up
· Photos of your La Jolla Realtor in the mirror
· Photos without description
3. Offer an incentive to the buyer. Not all incentives have to be expensive. Here are a few popular incentives in the Real Estate industry:
· A fancy car, boat or even a Harley Davidson motorcycle
· Credit towards the Buyers Closing Costs
· Vacation for Two
· Pay the first years home owners fees or taxes
4. Commission Offered to the Buyers Agent. Think about it, are you motivated to sell your property, you will do everything possible. A higher commission offered also gives the Realtor room to help make a deal happen.
5. Stage your home, clean up the yard, clean out closets, and most importantly keep it ready to show!
