Selling Your Fountain Hills Home in Today's Market

In today's home selling market it helps to have a competitive edge.

Your home needs to stand out in the buyer's mind as a place they can call home.

Buyers are looking for a house that they can make into their home. Homes are very personal, houses are not.

Houses are made of sticks and stones. Homes are made of people, memories and emotions.

That's why it is so important to prepare your house to sell. It involves

1. making the rooms look larger

2. giving the buyers the opportunity to create their own vision about how they could live in the house by depersonalizing the house

3. making the buyer feel confident about the condition of the house.

The more effort you put into the preparation, the more it will pay off. Today's buyers have so many choices they know they can expect more for their money.

Buyers today want to feel that they are getting as much house as possible for their money.

Making a house feel larger can be accomplished by creating an uncluttered, open environment.. Rooms that are stuffed with furniture do not feel cozy to the buyer. They feel smaller.

Dark walls, although in vogue, can also make a room feel smaller.

Depersonalizing the house involves having a minimum number of personal items displayed on walls and tables. This "minimalization "allows a buyer to feel more at home rather than feeling as if they are intruding. When "less is more" it is easier for buyers to visually and emotionally place their own possessions in the house.

If there is no open wall space and floor space, the house will feel smaller.

Buyers expect a home in well maintained condition. No ifs, ands or buts. They expect roofs to be in good condition, air-conditioners to be properly functioning and all mechanical, electrical and plumbing to be in good working condition. In most cases they expect warranties.

To get your home sold in it is critical that you pay attention to how buyers buy.
