I recently read an article on Realtor.com that sparked my interest and I wanted
to share it with you. It’s all about the unwritten rules sellers
should take into consideration when their home is on the market. Some are
funny. Some seem a little obvious....yet you’d be surprised at how many seller
faux pas we see when showing homes to our clients. And I’ll mention, these are things my team
and I go over with our sellers when their homes are on the market.
The number one unwritten rule is when someone calls to show your home,
make sure you’re not there while they’re looking at your home. In blunt terms, the simple fact that you’re
there could make a buyer uncomfortable and they may not even really look at
your home and take it into consideration. It’s important you give them the
freedom to view your home and make comments, out loud, to their agent about
what they like and even dislike. This helps us as Realtors to gauge their
interest level.
We often see pets in homes, and while I’m a dog-lover just like the
next person, not everyone is and you need to take that into consideration. If
you have to leave your pets at home, make sure they’re locked away somewhere
and you let your Realtor know where they are so they can avoid that area if
need be.
If you would like for my team to represent you in the sale
of your home call us today at 505-238-1000!!!
