When you’ve lived in your home for a long time, you barely notice any changes in the house. When it’s time to sell, you need to make an excellent first impression, so take a step back and look at things from the buyer’s perspective.

Pretend you’re walking into your home for the first time. Look for things like overgrown bushes that cover the windows, dirty sidewalks, or broken window screens. Get your cars and RVs out of the yard in order to make the parking space look larger.

Pay attention to the day-to-day details.

One crazy thing that most people don’t usually pay attention to is the doorknob on the front door. It’s the first thing buyers will grab onto. If you have an out of date doorknob, subconsciously, the buyer will think you’re not taking care of your home. Go to a hardware store and purchase a $40 doorknob. It can make a huge difference!

When selling your home, it’s incredibly important to pay attention to the small things you wouldn’t otherwise notice. Imagine what the buyer wants to see. If you have any questions, give me a call or send me an email. I would be happy to help you!

Today, we’re going to talk about the number one mistake for Flathead Valley sellers to avoid.

The National Association of Realtors recently conducted a study on homebuyers and their online search processes. They found 8 out of 10 buyers look for high quality photographs when deciding whether or not to visit a property. This is the number one factor for those buyers.

Professional photographs allow the buyers to see what the house is like. It’s also important to know that 90% of buyers begin their home search online. Without a doubt, the most important thing you can do is post professional photos of your homes. Just because everyone has an iPhone these days doesn’t mean you should let your agent take pictures of your home with one.

You never get a second chance at a first impression, so make sure that the buyers see awesome photos of your home. Get your home staged correctly and set it up perfectly so that you have an easy transaction from the very beginning.
