With median sales prices well over $500,000 and receiving nearly 100% of your asking prices, 2018 ended off strong for Boulder County home owners. Check out these stats provided by the Denver Metro Association of Realtors.
As 2019 gets off and rolling, everyone has vision and intentions for what this year will bring. If your vision involves selling your home, it's time to start taking the small steps that will maximize your profits and make your experience simple and stress free!
STEP 1: EASE THE MIND
Now is a great time to start getting your home ready for a big entrance onto the market. Do you need to spend tens of thousands? No. But simple things like a deep carpet cleaning, a service to your furnace and water heater, or a fresh coat of paint can really go a long way and keep buyers from thinking that they will have "too much to fix." This can also save your from getting an unexpected surprise during inspection time, which is something that no homeowner wants to experience.
STEP 2: KNOW YOUR LIMITS
What is your timeline? Is this urgent or do you have some time? How much money do you need to make? How much can you afford in repairs right now? Do you have a new home in place or do you need to rent back from the new owner? All of these questions play an important role in the proper pricing and negotiation of your home. Having the answers to all of these questions will add clarity and reduce tension in all stages of your home sale.
STEP 3: GIVE YOURSELF TIME
Give yourself enough time to really get yourself prepared mentally and your home prepared physically. This is the best way to reaching top dollar.
Now that you have 3 simple steps to get you started on the journey, let's sit down and develop your strategy for success. Whether you are selling now or in December, there is no substitute for good planning.
