Some tips for selling your home from Norma Toering & Team:

1. Prepare your home for sale.

The presentation of your property can greatly enhance the final sales price you obtain. Spruce up your curb appeal by keeping the property well landscaped and tidy. If you know of safety related repairs to you property you should complete those prior to putting it on the market. Painting with neutral appealing colors can be a great return on investment. Consider staging the property if needed.

2. Price properly.

The best way to determine the value of your home is to know exactly what similar properties in your neighborhood are selling for within the last three months. My free local market reports can keep your finger on the pulse of prices. You can also use online pricing tools such as Zillow to estimate a home's value. Zillow, though helpful, is not an ideal tool for property evaluation in many Southern California cities due to large differences in view, remodels and condidtion of properties even on the same street.

The worst mistake a seller can make is to overprice their property. This will result in "chasing the market down," where the property stays priced too high to draw any offers and even price reductions are too late as values decline. Correct pricing from the starting gate will likely net you more than meeting fair market pricing six months from now.

3. Choose the correct agent.

4. Make your property easy to view.

You want as many buyers as possible to view your home to maximize your chances of generating an offer. Having a yard sign will create neighborhood buzz. Installing a lockbox will encourage all agents to show your home. Also being willing to have open houses on the weekend will bring many buyers to your property that may not have seen it otherwise. Lookers often become buyers.
