Getting it Off the Market: How to Sell Your House Fast

When you’re in need of a quick home sale, how do you start to make that happen? You might need to split the proceeds from a divorce or an estate and are under pressure to get the house sold.

There are a few ways you can sell your house quickly. It just requires a little thinking outside the box.

How can you sell your house fast? Read on to find out.

1. Staging for Maximum Impact

If you want to sell your house fast, you need to make sure that it looks sharp and presentable. Did you know that almost half of all home buyers consider how the house was staged when they’re house shopping?

You need to make sure that the inside and outside of the house are appealing. Clean up any weeds in the yard, make the walkway look welcoming, and give color to the yard with various plants and flowers.

The inside of the home has to be clean, clutter-free and updated. Anything with lime green or hot pink may turn off buyers. Remember that everything has to come together inside the home, the colors, the lighting, furniture, and décor. It needs to wow the buyers right away.

2. Timing Matters

Another key to selling your home fast is to time the sale right. You may have to wait a little bit to make sure that people are actually looking for homes when you’re getting ready to sell.

If you need to sell the house and it’s the middle of winter, you have to weigh whether or not you should list the home now. Most people will buy a home in the warmer months. If you decide to list it in the winter, the home could sit on the market longer and bring down the value of the home.

3. Work with an Agent

You should consider working with an agent rather than trying to sell the house on your own. Let’ face it, you’re probably not an expert in negotiations and contracts.

You’ll want to get someone on your side who can tell you when to sell, what your home is worth, and how fast you can realistically sell it.

They also have access to other agents and listing services to put your home in front of as many potential buyers as possible.

4. Sell Your Home for Cash

If you don’t have the time for steps 1-3, your other option is to sell your home for cash. You’ll want to find a “we buy houses company” that can buy your house outright and fast.

There’s no waiting for a loan to get approved since it’s a cash transaction. It will close faster and you’ll be able to get your money sooner.

How to Sell Your House Fast

When you’re in a hurry to sell a house, you need to know how to sell your house fast. If you miss any of the steps listed here, you could be disappointed with the amount the home gets or it takes much longer than you want it to.
