While it’s true that many house sellers are walk away with unprecedented profits from the sale of their properties, there iIn a buyer’s market, there are many sellers and not many buyers. In a seller’s market, it’s the opposite – many buyers and not as many sellers. If you’re a seller in a seller’s market, you have the advantage already of having a scarce commodity that buyers want.
SELLER TIP #1: PRICE YOUR HOUSE RIGHT!
In the current market, there is a shortage of quality properties for buyers. As a result, buyers are willing to pay a premium for properties that meet the needs of their families.
As a seller, your objective should be to sell your house fast and for the best possible price. One of the ways a seller can gauge how to high they can go in terms of the asking price is by determining the condition, location, schools, and accessibility of their property.
- Condition: Property is in good – excellent condition
- Location: Property is in safe / family friendly neighborhoods
- Schools: Property falls under good – excellent school district
- Accessibility: Property is close to modern conveniences such as shopping, parks, highways, restaurants, etc.
One of the easiest ways to determine how you can go is by working with a reputable Realtor to put together housing valuation for your property. Preferably, the realtor can provide a FREE Home Valuation Report with Targeted Pricing Analysis. It lets the sellers know exactly how high they can go in terms of selling their house.

SELLER TIP #2: CREATE THE BEST FIRST IMPRESSION!
In this market, sellers are walking away with unprecedented profits from selling their properties. One of the ways you can increase the odds of you successfully selling your house at a great price is by creating the best possible impression of your house to potential buyers. Below is a simple checklist that can help increase the curb appeal of your property and the chances of you getting a great offer(s):
- Have the property cleaned before it goes live on the MLS. If a deep clean isn’t possible, try decluttering the property. A clean and organized property creates a welcoming energy which could turn showings to offers!
- Hire a professional photographer to take pictures of the property. Ever hear the saying that first impression is the best/last? This statement couldn’t be truer in real estate. If you are thinking about selling your house, make sure you are hiring a professional photographer to take the best possible pictures of your property so it creates the strongest impact on prospective buyers.

SELLER TIP #3 PLEASE HIRE A COMPETENT / EXPERIENCED REALTOR (SERIOUSLY. PLEASE)
All people are created equal. ABSOLUTELY TRUE! All agents are created equal. FALSE! One of the biggest challenges homeowners face when selling a house is picking the right agent to sell your home. Today, the market is flooded with agents who advertise themselves as experts. However, not all real estate agents are created equal. Homeowners should due their due diligence when picking the right agent including years of experience, professional certifications, educational background, and a plan for how they will sell your home. For many homeowners, selling their home is a once in a lifetime transaction and you want to make sure you have the most qualified agent in your corner.
