Renovate
It
might be that your home isn’t selling because
potential buyers feel like they can get more for their
money elsewhere. This is something to discuss with
your estate agent, as they should know why people
aren’t putting offers in. This could be because
the house is over-valued, or because better properties
are available for a similar amount of money.
If this is the case, and if you have money available,
then renovating could be the perfect solution. From
simple solutions such as freshening up the paintwork
to landscaping the garden to boost
your home’s curb appeal, there are a number
of things you can do to improve the appeal of your
property to potential buyers. Of course, some of these,
such as building a conservatory or converting a bedroom
can be expensive, but there are low cost options,
too. Talk to your estate agents and be sensible with
your budget. Remember you’ll have to recoup
the money through the sale.
Go to Auction
If
you’re not willing to invest and would like
a quick sale then you have two options. The first
of these is to take the property for auction, knowing
it will be sold on the day. However, it’s important
to realise that, although you may get a very good
price for your home, it may also be sold far cheaper
than you’d like, unless you place a reserve
on it.
Overall, an auction sale can be highly effective,
but it’s certainly not without risks, so make
sure that you do plenty of research.
Sell Online
As
a final option, if you’re looking for a quick
sale to ease financial pressure, then you could look
to sell your home online through a company such as
Quick
Buyers. This way, a quick sale is guaranteed,
freeing up your money troubles in the process. Plus,
unlike with the auction, you’ll know just how
much you’ll get for your property before you
sell.
To
conclude, selling a property can be difficult but,
by considering all these options, you give yourself
the best possible chance of getting a fair deal for
your property in a timeframe that suits you.
