5 TIPS EVERY HOMEOWNER SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU SELL YOUR HOME IN SUN LAKES

1. Price Your Home Competitively and Accurately from the Start

Hire a full-time experienced Realtor to analyze recent sales of comparable homes to understand what buyers are willing to pay in your area. This step is #1 and could affect the sale of your home right from the start. It could cause you to lose thousands of dollars if not partnered with an experienced, knowledgeable Realtor.

2. Make Necessary Repairs and Renovations

Address any non/structural issues

 Repairs can help ensure the property is appealing to buyers. 

 

Focus on key areas

 The kitchen and master bath often make a big impact on buyers. 

 

Consider a pre-inspection

 Addressing potential issues before listing can prevent unexpected problems during the sale process ie; roof, AC units, water heater etc..

3. Highlight Curb Appeal and Interior Appeal
