Seller's Rejoice

Selling in today's market is quite different than it was 2 years ago... even 1 year ago. The ball seems to be more in your court. You are faced with multiple offers, and back to back showings, which has given you, the home owner a sigh of relief. Offers are coming in higher and with less contingencies. It's close to a perfect world for you. If it sounds too good to be true, it's NOT. There are a couple things to remember though before you put a sign in your yard. 

1. Clean up around the yard. Now with snow(mostly) gone, it is important to pick up any debris that may have been forgotten about for the last 6 months.  

2. Keep the home clean and organized! I have personally noticed this is a huge factor for potential buyers. They want to see everything orderly. It makes them feel that the home would be easy to keep clean, and there are places for all their belongings. HUGE DEAL :)

3. Get rid of any musty odors or smells that are a TURN OFF for buyers. Keep a clean, neutral smell and everyone wins!
