Today, we’re going to go into the top three questions to ask if you’re thinking of selling your house in 2023. This is going to be super important because a lot of sellers oversimplify the process and then get surprised when they’re in the thick of it. The purpose of this video is to be able to help give you the right questions to ask if you’re thinking of selling.
Question #1: What is the current state of the real estate market?
- Consider the agent’s response and local market conditions.
- Low inventory levels and high demand indicate a good time to sell.
- Factors like interest rates and local economic conditions should be taken into account.
- A knowledgeable real estate agent who understands the local market is essential.
Question #2: Should I upgrade anything in my home before listing it?
- Consider the budget, time, and necessary improvements.
- Agents can provide guidance based on the condition of the home.
- Examples include retiling a cracked bathroom, replacing worn-out carpet and paint.
- Offering credit to buyers with reasonable offers can avoid upfront costs.
- Focus on upgrading the kitchen, primary bedroom, and bathroom for maximum impact.
Question #3: How should I price my home?
- Pricing strategies depend on market conditions and seller preferences.
- Pricing competitively or within the comps can attract more buyers.
- Avoid overpricing, as it may deter potential buyers.
- Multiple offers provide leverage and negotiating power.
- Consider the common top of buyers’ budgets when setting the price.
Bonus Question: Do you want to sell for top dollar or sell fast?
