When it comes to selling your house, it’s important to be mindful of the mistakes that can potentially decrease its value and make it more challenging to sell. Here are some common mistakes to avoid.
Overpricing
Setting an unrealistic price for your home can turn off potential buyers and make it difficult to sell. Be sure to do your research and set a fair price based on the current market value of your home. With our instant online valuation we can give you a good indication of what your property is worth in less than 60 seconds.
Neglecting repairs
Before putting your house on the market, make sure to fix any repairs that need to be done. Neglecting repairs can give buyers the impression that the house hasn’t been well-maintained, this can also increase the value of your property and attract a larger audience.
Ignoring curb appeal
The exterior of your home is the first thing potential buyers will see. Make sure to spruce up your landscaping, clean the exterior, and make any necessary repairs to the outside of your home.
Being inflexible with viewings
It’s important to be flexible with showings and accommodate potential buyers’ schedules. Being inflexible can turn off potential buyers and make it more difficult to sell your home.
Failing to stage your home
Staging your home can help potential buyers envision themselves living in the space. Failing to stage your home can make it feel impersonal and uninviting.
Not marketing effectively
A successful sale often relies on strong marketing efforts. Utilise various advertising platforms such as online listings, social media, and estate agents to maximise exposure. Professional photography and videography will also help by highlight unique features and increasing the value of your property. Here at Zenko we have an in-house marketing team that specialises in all of the above by enhancing the presentation of the property and boosting online visibility.
