Spotless Homes Sell!

Ideally, a home that’s on the market should be completely spotless. That includes keeping the beds eternally made, the bathrooms shining, the closets impeccable and the dishes washed and in their cabinets. Anyone who’s had their home on the market understands that this can become tedious as you find yourselves constantly cleaning! So the question you might ask yourselves… is it worth it? Undoubtedly, Yes! Especially if you want your home to sell quicker & for the best possible price!

What happens is that when buyers see typical household clutter, they often form the conclusion that your home as been well maintained. They end up focusing on negative issues such as possible plumbing concerns or whether they have to replace any appliances instead of focusing on the positive attributes that your home has to offer. Remember, while buyers use reason & logic to make their purchasing decisions, they also are influenced by their emotion, adrenaline & imagination!

Do you know what you want in a home?

There are any number of factors that can come into play when you are searching for a new home. In addition to knowing what you want in your new home, it’s also important to consider which factors you can be more flexible on as buying a new home often involves a degree of compromise.

For example, if you want to live in a specific location, discuss why you want to live in that neighborhood and consider if there are similar areas that offer the same benefits. How important is the size of your home? Are you looking for three bedrooms... four bedrooms? Do you want a den or home office? What about redecorating or remodeling? Do you have room in your budget for that?

These are just a few of the questions that can arise during the process of looking for and purchasing a new home. If you have any questions, call me on my cell, 201-615-5353, or visit my website SusanLaskinRealtor.com.
