Sell Your Home in 30 Days

The Today Show had a very neat feature called Sell Your House In 30 Days with Barbara Corcoran. You should go and watch the video as it is informative and really give a few basic no nonsense tips on getting your home prepared to sell quickly. There are two main aspects to selling a home quickly; first make it desirable, and second price it properly.
1. Clean your house top to bottom and then remove a substantial amount of your ‘stuff’. Think of making your home look like a model home – with closets that are mostly empty and minimal furniture that shows off the space you have to offer.
2. Research your competition and work with your real estate agent to price it appropriately to sell. Homes sit on the market for ages in part because they are not priced right. Market price and the price you want may not always be identical. Talk with your sales agent and make sure they have a good understanding of the realities of the market.
