If you want to sell off your home quick especially in a downmarket you must first prep and stage your residence which is what we call phase 1 giving your house ready to sell off. No matter what the reason why you need to sell off quick this is a vital step to not only sell off your house fast but getting a solid offer for your home. Prepping a residence is a simple process of performing small repairs to get the house ready to sell. Cleaning the carpet, fresh coat of paint, changing broken down door handles & changing light bulbs go a long way. Clearly, if there is any structural damage & you want to sell off to a owner occupant & not an investor you will gotta’ get this work done also.

Staging is the process of creating more appeal to the eye. This is performed by cleaning, decluttering, and making the home look and smell nice & feel open & feeling brand new. This is especially important in a vacant house to make it feel a tad bit more like a house when the prospective buyers visit. I am not talking about an all out stage & making your home look like a model home.  I’m just talking about the little touches to make it check to see nice.

Next you want to create appeal in your house & create curiosity about your house by making it seem easy to buy and/or by making it easy to purchase. This is done with the marketing and advertising that you do for the sale of the home. Selling your residence in an auction type format or with a desperate sellers ad makes your residence seem simple to purchase. Selling your home at a economical price, or best offer, or with great terms like owner financing & no bank qualifying makes your home simple to buy.  This is how we sell everyone of our dallas tx homes for sale in 5-7 days.

Besides creating curiosity for your property by making the properties easy to purchase you need to build urgency so that the calls come in immediately & that people actually put offers in on your property when they visited it. To generate urgency people have to see that they’re not the only ones keen on the home & that there is a short time frame in which they can get such a fab deal. When you combine these two is when you will see the greatest outcomes.

Now that you have an offer on your property it is vital that you follow up with the buyer and the title company on a weekly basis to ensure that everything is still going smoothly and to offer your help. Remember, don’t take your home off the market until you have an earnest money deposit and a signed contract. And even then you would be able to take in backup offers.  In summary make sure that you get your home market ready, that you generate urgency and curiosity in your house, and that you follow up with the prospective buyers & title company on a weekly basis until the property is closed.  If you wish for more help in getting your home sold speedily you can always use an investor.  We do this quite a lot for our clients at we buy houses dallas.
