A Few Ways to Generate Interest in your Home

 

 

With historically low interest rates, increased affordability, and a wide selection of homes to choose from, it i a great time to buy a home.  As the popular spring-time buying period approaches, it is important that home sellers consider the best way to generate interest in their home.

 

 

Here are some tips from MSNBC financial columnist Laura T. Coffey:

  • Consider feedback. Take any criticism your Sales Associate passes along from buyers who have viewed your home, and use it to your advantage. Fixing any issues that come up makes your home more attractive to buyers.
  • Take a break. It is best if you are not at home during showings. This allows potential buyers to talk freely, making it more likely that you will get the constructive feedback you need to make the sale.
  • Mix it up. Host an Open House on a weeknight in addition to a weekend day. This makes it easier for people to attend and could attract an entirely new group of potential buyers.
  • Price it right. A home that is priced right will sell in any market. Think about the lowest amount you are willing or able to accept, and be open to adjusting your home’s list price accordingly based on local market data.
