Selling your Salt Spring Real Estate

Are you about to list your Salt Spring real estate? Here is some information from a Salt Spring buyers agent on how to sell your Salt Spring Island Real Estate. I do not currently take listings - these are suggestions to help you sell your home by owner or with a listing agent. 

  1. Price your house right
  2. Clean up all the stuff
  3. Get a home inspection done
  4. Get a survey and have it available
  5. Historic photos
  6. Permits for various renovations and or projects
  7. Construction plans
  8. Put out Cookies or Muffins
  9. Have a suggestion box
  10. Use a Lock Box for your key to make access easy 
  11. Let other agents take photos of your house to show their clients 
  12. Get the septic tank pumped 

1. Ask yourself why you are selling? Do you really want to sell or are you just fishing for a sky high price. If you over price your Salt Spring real estate you will know it in the first couple of weeks. The buyers are like fishermen, fishing for houses, when one comes on the market the buyers will give it a quick once over. If it is priced right they will view it and put in an offer. If it is over priced they will throw it back like a dog fish. Overpricing will leave your house on the market for a long time. Then the buyers will think that there is something wrong with your house and it will just not sell. The listing information will not go away once you overprice even if you re-list. The information about your home is out there in cyberland. If you under price a house you will know because you will get multiple offers within the first week or so and it will sell fast. Don't list your house with the Realtor that tells you your house is worth x+ when you know it is only worth x. Do your own research and figure out com parables on your own. You can use my enhanced search engine for this purpose
