Spring season is just around the corner, and the real estate market doesn’t wait for anyone, and if you are thinking about selling your home, you should start preparing. Selling a home shouldn’t be stressful, but it is a daunting task because there are so many things you must do to prepare your home. There are going to be lots of other houses on the market, so you must ensure that you prepare your house in a manner that attracts homebuyers.

So, here is what you need to do to get your home ready to sell this spring:

1. Get in touch with a Platinum Real Estate agent

The first step you must take is get in touch with a real estate agent who will price your property, and will guide you throughout the entire home selling process. Keep in mind that there isn’t any guarantee you will sell your home, with some homes staying for weeks and months on the listings. Getting the right real estate agent can help you sell your home quickly this spring. I can assist you contact me today at luther@platinumrealestate.com.

2. Make repairs to the house

You must ensure that the homebuyer doesn’t find anything wrong with your home, which is why you must prioritize repairs. Look at your property from the eyes of a buyer, and get to work on anything that is cracked, leaky, chipped, or in need of a touch up. Get done with small things first, because repair-work can take time and quickly build up. Therefore, plan the repairs, and get them out of the way, so that no homebuyer has any complaints with your home.

3. Stage your home

The next step is one of the most important ones, because after you have made repairs to your home, you need to stage it. You must have looked at thousands of different photos of real estate listings, with one thing in common in all of them, all the houses looked neat and tidy. That is exactly the way a house should be staged, and you must do the same thing. So, declutter your home, and get rid of all unwanted furniture or personal items that are blocking space.

The homebuyer wants to picture living in the home, and having your personal items lying around isn’t going to allow them to do that. Therefore, ensure that your home doesn’t have any needless items lying around when it is staged.

4. Get the paperwork in order

The final stage of getting your home ready to sell this spring is getting all your paperwork in order. This will mean making trips to the bank, and compiling all the building permits, receipts, and other important documents in order. Make sure that your paperwork is perfect, and you have collected all your bills, so that you homebuyers can have an estimate on the type of billing your house gets.
