Four Tips for Selling Your Home in a Competitive Market

Kisha Johnson • May 15, 2021

Selling your home in a competitive market may be a challenge, but it is not impossible. Here are some tips for how to make your home stand out in a sea of buyers.


Appeal to Your Audience

Home buyers will be inundated with tons of different properties during their search, so it is easy to fall off their radar. To prevent this, you’ll want to appeal to your audience and add a little extra “oomph” to sweeten the pot. 

Take a second to think this out - how can you make the home buying process a little less stressful for the buyers? Is there a way you can cover parts of the closing costs or do a pre-sale inspection? Small details such as these will go a long way in closing the right deal.


Invest in Your Curb Appeal

We all know how much first impressions matter, so why not take this time to really invest in the curb appeal of the property? Prospective buyers are most likely to turn away from a home with a poorly maintained yard and facade; after all, the landscaping is one of the hardest things to change and personalize. So, spruce up your yard, plant some flowers and grass, install a new sleek door, and even consider adding edging to your landscaping and sidewalk(s).


Hire a Professional Photographer

Good quality photos will go far in enticing tons of prospective buyers to tour the home. Since everything is done online nowadays, including real estate listings, professional photos can be all the difference between sparking interest and being looked over. 


Price to Suit the Market

It can be hard to figure out the right price for your property, so this is why we’re here! If you over price a home, it may stay on the market for too long, and if you price the home too low, you won’t be getting enough bang for your buck.
