Real Estate Articles Worth Reading

One of the most important things when selling a home is your presentation. When you are competing against other similar homes it becomes even more important that your home stands out in a good way.

Most buyers today are looking for turn-key properties where they don't have to do major renovations or multiple improvements. Those who let their homes go suffer greatly in terms of what they can sell their home for. Buyers pay for mint condition but penalize for imperfection.

This makes having your home look it's best extremely important. @Lynn Pineda  has put together a mega guide on what you need to do in order to stage your home for maximum success.

Lynn has gone out and referenced some of the best home stagers and real estate agents in the business to get a massive list of tips to make a home shine before it hits the market.

Take a look at this must read guide to getting your home staged to perfection. Remember a home that looks exceptional will almost sell quicker and for more money than one that doesn't!

If you asked any home stager they would tell you that home staging does sell homes. Unfortunately this question does not have a clear cut and dry answer. Does home staging help sell a home priced correctly, that has exceptional marketing, by an excellent Realtor? Yes without question!

What can't be missed in this equation for a home to be priced properly. All the staging in the world is not going to sell an overpriced home. The best real estate agent in the world is also not going to sell a listing that is priced way too high.

This is how real estate works. If you talk to some stagers however they would have you believe they carry magic wands. Some of them actually believe that all homes need staging and they will spew out their stats about how all of their homes sell quicker.

The most important factor in selling a home is working with a real estate agent that knows market values in your town inside and out. They price home realistically and market the heck out of them. If you want your home sold this is what is important. Can staging help if you need it? It sure can but don't think it is a miracle cure without the rest of what's important.
