5 Dos and Don'ts for Sellers When Listing Your Home with Garner Realty

When you're ready to sell your home, it can feel overwhelming, but with the right guidance, the process can be smooth and successful. At Garner Realty, we're here to help you every step of the way, offering personalized service and expert insights. If you're considering listing your home, here are five essential dos and don'ts to keep in mind:

 

Working with professionals like Eric and Lana Garner, who bring years of industry experience, is key to ensuring your listing is well-executed. With deep local knowledge and a proven track record, we understand the nuances of the market and will help position your home for success.

 

 

First impressions matter! Home staging can help buyers envision themselves living in your space, which leads to higher offers. At Garner Realty, we work closely with skilled contractors and designers to ensure your home is in its best possible condition before hitting the market.

 

 

Setting the right price is one of the most important steps in the home-selling process. Overpricing can deter potential buyers, while underpricing can leave money on the table. We offer a thorough comparative market analysis (CMA) to determine the best listing price for your property, taking into account the latest market trends.

 

 

Small repairs or upgrades can significantly increase your home’s value and appeal to buyers. Whether it’s fresh paint, minor fixes, or a full renovation, we offer a pay-at-close concierge service, so you don’t need to worry about paying for repairs upfront. You can make the improvements necessary to get top dollar for your home without any added financial strain.

 

 

The more accessible your home is for showings, the more likely it is to sell quickly. We recommend being flexible with showing times and open houses to accommodate potential buyers. Our team works hard to ensure the negotiation process is smooth, providing you with expert advice every step of the way.

 

Great photos can make the difference between a listing that gets clicks and one that gets ignored. Don’t cut corners by using your phone or outdated images. We use professional photographers to make your listing stand out online, showcasing your home’s best features with high-quality visuals.

 

 

The exterior of your home is the first thing potential buyers see. If the curb appeal is lacking, it can deter interest before they even step inside. Invest in simple landscaping or a fresh coat of paint on the front door to make your home more inviting.

 

 

While you might have sentimental value in your personal belongings, buyers need to imagine themselves in the space. Consider removing family photos, heavy furniture, and excessive personal decor so the space feels open and neutral.

 

 

Listing your home is just the beginning—effective marketing is key to reaching the right buyers. At Garner Realty, we use a variety of marketing strategies, including social media, online listings, and even The American Dream TV show, to get your property in front of a wide audience.

 

 

Trying to sell your home without expert guidance can lead to mistakes that could cost you. From understanding contracts to navigating negotiations, having two seasoned agents working for you can make all the difference. With Eric and Lana Garner, you’re getting a team of professionals dedicated to achieving your goals.
