BEFORE YOU SELL YOUR HOME

What is my home worth?

  • A lot of factors determine the value of your home. These include the location, condition of home, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the total living space, land, and most importantly the market conditions. Market conditions can decide things like the price of the home with many factors such as supply of listings, shortage of buyers, etc. Talking to a Signature agent can help you understand in depth the conditions of selling a home.

How can I minimize my spending?

  • Major upgrades to your bathroom or kitchen that will be a huge expense are not necessary, however, small changes in the kitchen and bathroom, removing any discrepancies, deep cleaning of your home, and creating more space would be a great help. The art of it is to do just the right amount. We here at Signature study different trends and marketing strategies to understand what is needed and what is not. What buyers are looking for is most important. After all they are the ones buying.

How important is a home inspection?

  • While typically a home inspection is completed by a home buyer, for a seller to have one done before listing is a key here at Signature. A home inspected prior to listing, provides a seller clarity on what may be an issue down the line. Whether this issue may be that windows, a water heater, a furnace, or even a roof might need repairs. Paint touch-up, caulking, and sometimes staging are all items that can be found during a pre inspection that can do wonders when listing your home. Being proactive on this front helps you sell faster and brings both you and the potential buyer great confidence. At the end of the day, this will be one of the biggest purchases of the future homeowner. While the perfect price can be made up for your home, peace of mind cannot be priced and giving a buyer that will make the transaction as smooth as possible both saving you time and money.

  • Pre inspected home gives clarity to buyer and shows transparency in process. Being proactive on this front helps you sell faster and bring great confidence, this home is well taken care and maintained by current owner. At the end of the day, this will be one of the biggest purchase of new homeowner. We can not put price tag on peace of mind.

Listing Your House

How to determine a list price?

Pricing a home involves many factors both simple and complex. Listing your home at the correct price from day one is vastly important. Overpricing and underpricing can be major pitfalls when selling your home. We here at Signature guide our sellers through the correct pricing strategies, and more importantly while using comparative market analysis to rectify the correct list price[1] [2] [3] . A Signature Agent is here to help you determine the price of your home.

When should I list my home?

Once you and your Signature agent have determined a price, a timeline should be made to determine how and when your home will sell. Market trends, stability, buyers season, sellers seasons will all be looked into to decide when the time is perfect to sell, in the fastest and most profitable way.
