Thinking about selling your home in Calgary? In a market like this, the goal is always sell quickly and for the BEST price possible. Here are 5 proven tips to make that happen:
Boost Your Curb Appeal 🌿~ First impressions matter! Whatever season you sell in its always advantageous to cut the lawn, a snow-free walkway, freshly painted trim, garage door and main door (think ahead if you plan to sell in the spring) Calgary buyers often drive by before booking a showing in they happen to be in the area - make them want to stop!
Declutter & Clean Like a Pro🧹~ Pack away that crowds the area, extra pictures, extra furniture, extra kitchen appliances. The less cluttered and the cleaner the home looks, the buyers have an easier time imaging their life in your home. Think “Show Suite” vibes. Unbelievably clean and less is more!
Light It Up💡~ Good lighting sells! Open up your blinds to let Calgary’s big sky pour in. Add warm bulbs and ditch the cool lights. This tends to give a cold feeling and not a cozy feel to the home.
Price It Right 💰~ The Calgary market is still moving, yes it has softened and some more than others depends on the sector/community but it’s still moving. Price it right! This is KEY to a smart sale! Work with us to review recent sold data in your neighborhood, so we can price smart and be competitive!
Market Like a Pro 📲 ~ Make sure your photos are done professionally. Not by the agent and their iPhone. Let the professionals catch the lightening and the beauty of the space. Open houses are a great tool to show off your property. Yes even the noisy neighbors! If they love the community, they will be the first to tell their family and friends. There is a ton we do and like to keep a few things in the back of our pockets! 😉
Bottom Line": Working together as a partnership is key! Because with the right prep from the sellers and the right strategies from the real estate agent, your Calgary home can sell quickly - and for top dollar!
