Paint
One of the simplest things you can do to make your home look new and inviting is to apply a fresh coat of paint. You may not have the time or funds to repaint the entire house, but choosing to paint walls that have scratches, scuff, or “unique colors” can be done quickly and go a long way in enticing home buyers.
Update Hardware
Sometimes it’s the littlest things that make a home look old or outdated. If it’s been quite a while since you updated the hardware on your doors and cupboards, you might want to consider it. Broken hardware, worn doorknobs, and handles, and outdated styles such as polished brass should all be replaced.
Revamp Lighting
Many people overlook lighting when they’re preparing their home for sale, but swapping out old light bulbs for new LED ones is a wise choice. Not only will it brighten the surroundings but LED lasts longer and uses significantly less energy, which is a big selling point!
Clean and Declutter
If there’s only one thing you do to prepare your home for selling, you should focus on cleaning and decluttering. Nothing turns off a potential buyer faster than to walk into a home that looks and smells dirty. It should look neat and tidy and personal items such as family pictures should be stowed away.
Did You Know...
Sellers that work with a real estate agent typically get significantly more money for their home than if they choose to sell it on their own. If this wasn’t incentive enough, consider all of the services your real estate agent will provide. Selling a home is hard enough without having to worry about setting up appointments, screening potential buyers, and making sure you have all of the legal documents in place.

Determine the Best Time To Sell Your Home
Before you place your home on the market, it’s important to consider whether or not now is a good time to sell. At King Nudelman, we know the area and understand the seasonal trends in the real estate market. Although not everyone will be able to wait until the perfect time of year to sell, if you have the option, it could make a big difference in how quickly your home sells and the price you get for it.
Perform a Market Analysis
To find the right balance between selling a home quickly, but without leaving money on the table all comes down to price. To determine the ideal listing price, you need the help of an experienced agent who can perform an accurate market analysis of the area. This is vital for ensuring that your asking price is in line with other comparable homes that have recently sold in your neighborhood.

Depending on how much interest there is in your property, this can turn into a time-consuming task. Let a King Nudelman agent manage this for you so you can focus on other things such as packing and finding your new home.
