| 1. |
Price
it right. Set a price at the lower end of your property's
realistic price range. |
| 2. |
Get
your house market ready for at least two weeks before
you begin showing it. |
| 3. |
Be
flexible about showings. It's often disruptive to
have a house ready to show on the spur of the moment,
but the more often someone can see your home, the sooner
you'll find a buyer. |
| 4. |
Be
ready for the offers. Decide in advance what price
and terms you'll find acceptable. |
| 5. |
Don't
refuse to drop the price. If your home has been
on the market for more than 30 days without an offer,
be prepared to lower your asking price. |
