6 Home Selling Mistakes l iz kroft | realtor®

if you’re selling its best to avoid a few things…

1. DON’T SELL BEFORE THE

HOUSE IS READY

“if it doesn’t present well, it will not sell well!”

2. DON’T OVER IMPROVE

people buy homes in neighborhoods

you’re hurting your best chances of selling if your home is so improved it stands out

3. DON’T HIRE WRONG

choose your agent for BUSINESS REASONS

personal relationships matter, but experience and expertise will

determine your sale’s financial success

4. DON’T HIDE ANYTHING

covering up or failing to mention real problems does not work,

you can be sued well after the sale

DISCLOSURE LAWS ARE STRICT

5. DON’T RUSH IT

before jumping on the market know:

• your mortgage (including pre-payment penalties)

• your market conditions and trends • your options for your next home

6. DON’T GET TOO EMOTIONAL

sorry, but

your attachment to your house and your financial needs

don’t really matter in the sale

IN A NUTSHELL1. don’t sell before the house is

ready2. don’t over improve 3. don’t hire wrong

4. don’t hide anything5. don’t rush it

6. don’t get too emotional

remember:it was your home,

but to the buyer it is a house
