The answer is simple. Taking the time upfront to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2022/09/12/getting-your-house-ready-to-sell-work-with-an-agent-for-expert-advice/?a=857892-09a9fd400a8e446567ed949404962a10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="font-weight: 400;">prep your house</a>&nbsp;appropriately and create a solid plan can help bring in the greatest return on your investment.</h3><p>Here are a few simple tips to make sure you maximize the sale of your house this&nbsp;fall.</p><h4><strong>1. Price It Right</strong></h4><p>One of the first things buyers will notice is the price of your house. That’s because the price sends a message to home shoppers. Pricing your house too high to begin with could put you at a disadvantage by discouraging buyers from making an offer. On the flip side, pricing your house too low may make buyers worry there’s some underlying issue or something wrong with the home.</p><p>Your goal in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2022/08/09/selling-your-house-your-asking-price-matters-more-now-than-ever/?a=857892-09a9fd400a8e446567ed949404962a10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">pricing your house</a>&nbsp;is to gain the attention of prospective buyers and get them to make an offer. And with price growth and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2022/09/19/will-my-house-still-sell-in-todays-market/?a=857892-09a9fd400a8e446567ed949404962a10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">buyer demand</a>&nbsp;moderating, as well as a greater&nbsp;<a href="https://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2022/08/25/why-you-may-want-to-start-your-home-search-today/?a=857892-09a9fd400a8e446567ed949404962a10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">supply of homes</a>&nbsp;available for sale, pricing your home appropriately for where the market is today has become more important than ever before.</p><p>But how do you know that perfect number? Pricing your house isn’t a guessing game. It takes skill and expertise. Work with a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2022/09/09/why-its-so-important-to-hire-a-pro-infographic/?a=857892-09a9fd400a8e446567ed949404962a10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">trusted real estate advisor</a>&nbsp;to determine the current&nbsp;market value for your home.</p><h4><strong>2. Keep It Clean</strong></h4><p>It may sound simple but keeping your house clean is another key to making sure it gets the attention it deserves. As&nbsp;<em>realtor.com</em>&nbsp;says in the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.realtor.com/advice/sell/home-selling-checklist-things-to-do-before-selling/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Home Selling Checklist</em></a>:</p><p>Before each buyer visits, assess your space and determine what needs your&nbsp;attention. Wash the dishes, make the beds, and put away any clutter. Doing these simple things can reduce potential distractions for buyers.</p><p>For more tips, check out&nbsp;<a href="https://www.simplifyingthemarket.com/2022/09/23/fall-home-selling-checklist-infographic/?a=857892-09a9fd400a8e446567ed949404962a10" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">this checklist</a>&nbsp;for preparing your house for sale. Ultimately an agent is your best resource for tailored advice, but this list can help get you started.</p><h4><strong>3. Help Buyers Feel at Home</strong></h4><p>Finally, it’s important for buyers to see all the possible ways they can make your house their next home. An easy first step to create this blank canvas is removing personal items, like pictures, awards, and sentimental belongings. It’s also a good idea to remove any excess furniture to help the rooms feel bigger and make sure there’s ample space for touring buyers to stand and look at the layout.</p><p>If you’re unsure what should be packed away and what can stay, consult your trusted real estate advisor. Spending the time on this step can pay off in the long run.
