Ideally, the home-selling process starts several months before you make your home available for sale. You need time to prepare your home buyers and yourselves for the real estate process. Try to put yourself in the buyers shoes and see your home through their eyes. If you were looking for a home, what would you want to see? The goal is to show a home that looks good, maximizes space and attracts as many buyers as possible.
In the early stage, we will help you identify things that can be done to make the most of your homes attributes, highlighting the best selling-points.
Part of the "getting ready" phase may involve repairs and generally sprucing up. Sometimes homeowners will let maintenance and chores slip a little, because - let's face it - there are many more entertaining ways to spend ones time and money! But, when you are getting ready to sell, it's time to buckle down and get all those things done. Speak with us to find out what things should be done before you put the home on the market and what can wait until a buyer does their home inspection. SETTING THE STAGE:
Once in a blue moon, we walk into a home that looks like an interior designer prepared it for a photo spread in "House Beautiful". For the rest of us, getting your home in buyer-ready condition involves a few nips and tucks. We can point out a few easy and inexpensive ways to make your home appealing to buyers.

AfterTIMING:
The Triangle real estate market is seasonal and tends to be more active in the summer when school is out for summer vacation. Parents like to do their home-buying and -selling without having to change their children's schools in the middle of the school year. Generally, the slowest times of the year is the period between Thanksgiving and New Year's. After January 1, activity slowing ramps up to peak around June/July.
