Naples Home Selling

When it comes to Naples home selling, it is important to remember a bit of advice I once heard – unrealistic expectations are predetermined resentments. The following offers a few tips with hope that it will help make your Naples home selling the most positive of experiences. To put it in proper context, according to a survey by the National Association of Realtors, 83% of people view their home as a good financial investment. Not only is owning a home for most people their biggest single asset, it also holds many memories which can make it emotionally difficult when it comes time to put their home on the market. Being smart about how you approach Naples home selling can help facilitate getting a return on their investment. Your chances will increase if you avoid these five mistakes when listing your home:

1. Not being realistic about value – What you think your homes is worth and the actual price you can sell it for are usually two very different numbers. Sellers need to be careful about not getting too greedy on the listing price. If you overprice your home from the start, there is a good chance that it will sell at a lower price than it would have had it been appropriately priced in the first place. Ask me for a complimentary market analysis of your home.

2. Not making you home look its best – You should hire a good cleaning service to do a cleaning which includes all windows. Declutter and maybe paint walls a neutral color if they are personalized. Remove extra furniture to make rooms more spacious. Also professionally staged homes can sell 5 to 7 times faster. Ask me for suggestions on how best to showcase your home.

3. Refusing to negotiate – After setting a fair and reasonable price for your home after getting comparables in your area, you also need to build in some negotiating room. It is not uncommon for buyers to make an offer well below your asking price. Naturally they want to pay as little as possible for the home they want. You can satisfy your buyers while getting the price you will accept by accepting a little less then your asking price. Concessions might also be considered. Ask me about assisting you in getting the price you want for your home.

4. Hiding problems with your home – Trying to hide flaws which should be taken care of is never a good idea. A Buyer may well discover them during a home inspection and then major problems could ensue.

5. Not having a backup plan – Smart sellers have contingency plans in place in case their home sells quickly.
