Do Your Homework And Avoid The 4 Most Common Mistakes That Charlotte Home Sellers Make

4 Common Mistakes Charlotte Home Sellers Make

Is your home located in a prime location or a fantastic school zone but, you find your Charlotte home for sale becoming 'stale' on the market? It may be one of the 4 most common Charlotte NC home seller mistakes that can be easily remedied.

1. A home price too high will yield you either low-ball Offers or none at all. When is the last time you viewed the comparable properties in the area? How does your home measure up to the competition? How is the competition priced? In order to get a serious buyer, Charlotte home sellers must be serious about selling and pricing is KEY in this market.

2. The marketing: Have you surveyed the marketing that is being done for your Charlotte home for sale? If not, perhaps there are alternatives to what you're doing that will prove more beneficial in getting a sale on your home. Photos are primo in helping get homes sold and if your photos are sub-par, they're not going to invite buyers to want to view your home in person.

3. Your real estate agent. If your Charlotte real estate just isn't selling, it may be because your agent isn't doing enough to get buyers through the door. Make sure you have detailed and open discussions with your agent from the beginning. That way you'll each know exactly what you expect from the other. If you're not getting the results you want, talk with your agent and put a plan in place to reach your goals.

4. Your home is in poor condition. Make sure all of the necessary fixes and repairs are done. Clean! And, remove as much clutter from your home as you can. You want potential buyers to come in and imagine themselves living there. Don't make them want to run right back out of the door.

Want to discuss selling your Charlotte home? Give me a call today! It's nearly time for the spring market and I specialize in not only listing but, SELLING Charlotte homes!

Important Help When Shopping Charlotte NC Luxury Homes For Sale

Perhaps you are looking into Charlotte NC luxury homes for sale. This is a very important time in your life. When you buy an upscale house it is a major investment, and you deserve to get the most for your purchasing dollar. There are many important reasons to take advantage of real estate professionals when you are in the market for an upscale home.

When you shop upscale Charlotte properties, you can look into the usual sources such as the newspaper and internet. However, not all upscale homes are listed in these publications. A real estate professional has access to all available properties in the area. This way, you can be assured of finding exactly what you need.

A professional real estate person is there for you from start to finish. Once you contact a professional service, you have all the assistance that you need. There is nothing to lose, as they are paid by the seller.

Maybe you are new to the city of Charlotte. Your property agent will show you everything that you wish to see in the area. Property professionals live and work in the area, so they know a great deal about the city. They can show you where to find the best schools and shopping locations. This can greatly simplify the process of shopping for an upscale home.

Real estate professionals are there to help you find your new home and to negotiate terms. They will work hard to get you the kind of deal that you want and need. You can discuss all of your expectations before you look for houses. Your agent can show you everything that is in your specific price range, so you will not pass over the perfect property.

Some people choose to look for upscale properties on their own, and they have very little education and experience in the matter. This is why a professional real estate person can be an important asset. Your property agent is also happy to assist you with any financing arrangements and can recommend several possibilities. Most of the hard work is done for you.

Making a long story short, finding the best available upscale property does not have to be hit and miss. Your real estate professional will be there for you to help you find what you want and need. All of the important arrangements will be taken care of from shopping to closing. When you shop Charlotte NC luxury homes for sale, you can do so with confidence, when you have the assistance of professionals.

If You're A Charlotte Home Seller, You Need to Reside in Realityville!

Do You Live in Realityville?

Listing and marketing Charlotte homes for sale are the most enjoyable aspects of my 'job' to me.  I thoroughly enjoy the market analysis, the staging and prep, the constant marketing challenge, 'romancing' the Realtors®, creating ads, showing homes and the best part--seeing the look on sellers' faces when an Offer is received and ultimately Closing occurs so that they can move on to the next chapter in their lives.  Everything about listing a home is exciting to me...well, with the exception of pricing a home.  Pricing is serious business and can make or break everything else that you've put into selling your home.  

Yes, I've been guilty of allowing sellers to overprice.  This market has taught me more about overpricing than I ever wanted to learn!   I say, "No more!"  And yes, pricing IS ultimately the seller's decision--I am in charge of the process, they are in charge of pricing.  I may advise, cajole, beg, plead but, THEY price their property!

What is seller's reality?  If your home is listed in MLS with an agent who is marketing your property thoroughly, is updated and staged well (including being decluttered), and has been on the market over 60 days with few buyers coming through and absolutely NO Offers, then the market has spoken, reality has reared its ugly head.  What did the market say to you?  You're OVERpriced!  Times have changed since your neighbor sold their home for a hefty profit.  Times have changed since your neighbor sold their home in a few short hours.  Times have changed since your neighbor sold his home with very few upgrades, if any.  With the incredibly high supply and low demand, buyers can afford to take their time to find the absolute best deal!

However, times have also changed in YOUR favor--nearly 90% of buyers are shopping for a home online and if your home is marketed well there, then your home IS being seen by prospective buyers.  Your home is shown inside and out, upstairs and down--all over the internet.  Buyers are savvy these days and can easily cost-compare homes online and if yours appears to be overpriced, they move/click on.  Why wouldn't they?  Would YOU overpay for a home when you can get a better price on a similar new home?

Fussing at your agent for lack of showings or not doing his/her job (remember, we are the experts--this IS our business), isn't going to get the job done.  Yelling that the neighbor's agent had one more open house than you have had, isn't going to get the job done. Screaming for a newspaper ad which doesn't sell homes any longer, isn't going to change the reality.  Complaining that the last showing agent hasn't provided feedback within the hour--or even within the week isn't going to get the job done; if their buyer liked the home, you WILL get an Offer!

Herein lies the reality - your price needs to be adjusted.  Period.  Plain and simply, the sooner you make the adjustment, the sooner your burden of carrying the costs of the home and keeping your home in showing condition will come to an end and the sooner the next chapter in your life will begin. 

Sorry sellers, this is simply Realityville...welcome to MY world!
