Did you know that early spring to mid-summer is the most popular time to buy or sell a home? If you anticipate selling your home in the next year or so, you may want to consider getting it ready to sell now so that you capitalize on this ideal window of time. What makes this time of year so busy for the housing market? Here are just a few reasons:
- Houses show best during these seasons. Grass grows green, while landscaping looks its best. The exteriors of homes truly make the first impression, and you’ll gain more showings and potential buyers with a well-tended landscape.
- Families with children prefer to execute moves in the summer to avoid school disruptions. This means they start looking in early spring for potential homes.
- This time of year has fewer holidays, celebrations, and other events that take buyers’ up time. Likewise, homes need to show without holiday decorations or seasonal décor distracting from their appeal.
If you’ve decided to sell your home, now is the time to get it “show ready.” While you think your home is valuable and attractive as is, you may be surprised at how your personalized spaces and oversized furniture will turn off some buyers. Every room in your home needs to be immaculately cleaned, decluttered, and removed of all overly personal items. Realtors often recommend that you invest in fresh paint, fixtures, or even professional staging to help boost the appeal of your home, an expense many of us can’t take on. While you may not be able to invest in professional staging or new furniture, you can use certain space-saving tools in order to ensure your home appears fresh, modern, and spacious. For example, that oversized entertainment center could make your living room seem small and cramped to a buyer. Instead, use a TV wall mount to free up space and show the room’s full potential. Likewise, a hidden TV lift in the master bedroom allows for best staging while also adding a “cool” factor buyers will love. These small touches transform spaces and give you more freedom for staging your home.
