Let's Be Honest, selling your home can be both exciting
and disappointing.
On one hand, you have an opportunity to find a new home- finding what you want that your current home(s) don't have, moving closer to work, to move on from past memories, and so on.
On the other end of things, selling a home can be disappointing. You've lived there for a long time, you've put a lot of sweat into making it look so much better than the others in the neighborhood, or perhaps you don't appear to have much choice at all but to sell your home to make ends meet.
Either way, one thing is for certain- it needs to be done right and it needs to make financial sense in most or all aspects. You've come to the right place. Call today or send an email for a truly educational, no-pressure analysis of your situation and a few complimentary suggestions. (702) 277-1427 Seven days a week.
When Should You Sell Your Home?
The most important time element relating to the sale of your home is: When is it best for you?
Selling a home, once you find a buyer, often involves an approximately one month-long escrow. Thus, to anticipate when you get your proceeds (that's why you're selling, right?), one must get familiar with the market price for the home, price the home, and hope that your home sells within the range (Days on the Market or "DOM") of time other homes similar to yours have been selling.
Sounds simple, right? Well, the answer varies quite a bit depending on your knowledge of the immediate & general market trends and your ability to create exposure so that as many potential buyers as possible have the opportunity to acknowledge that your home is for sale.
Another component of timing relates to who is puting in the effort to sell the home. Realtors and real estate professionals have more resources, by nature than your average for sale by owner (FSBO) sellers. It's likely, then, that your home may sell faster when more resources (a professional) is used and, like capitalism encourages, the more people that see your home, the more likely it is that you receive multiple offers, which, in some cases, increases the sale price and your bottom line.
In all, you sell your home ealier than when you know you need your proceeds, but not too much earlier. Don't expect an offer in 15 minutes, even if you believe you'll get one that quickly.
How does someone sell a home?
Selling a home is essentially no different than selling anything else, such as a car or common appliances. Someone has something to sell and hopefully we also have someone who is out looking for something to buy.
The two most common methods are:
For Sale by Owner (FSBO) and
For Sale by a Brokerage
The advantages and di
sadvantages to both are numerous and have been known to be the topic of countless conversations for nearly a century now.
Consider the analogy of employment. Two common choices are to find an employer (a job) or create one, which we call self-employed. If you can picture yourself succeeding as a self-employed professional who can at least make ends meet, then for sale by owner may be a good option for you. It requires constant awareness of the legality and common protocols for creating interest in your product or service.
If, on the other hand, you are the type of person who is intimidated by paperwork, often pressed for time, and not at least somehwhat aware of the current real estate market, then using a brokerage is likely the best option for you.
What Sets Your Services Apart from Other Selling Alternatives?
Most Important: We are genuinely interested in your success. If it's not a good idea or has negative consequences for you, we won't recommend it- even if it means we won't be paid. This is your house, your life, and we respect that.
We use resources that most Realtors don't use, such as Talking House and over 25 places we commonly advertise, which is included at no additional charge in our listing package.
We are available 7 days a week- how many people do you know that work 7 days a week? We're around when most people have gone home (or haven't left!).
