According to Michael Gentile, a Granada Hills REALTOR®, the task of selling a home will be much easier if you are working with an experienced and professional Granada Hills Realtor.
Some of the task that your Granada Hills Realtor will be to advertise and show the property to prospective buyers, determine how long has it been since the house is on the market, and whether you are planning to make another purchase. As much as possible, your property should be listed through a Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
Granada Hills real estate agent Web sites, classified ads and Granada Hills real estate guides, these are only a few of the ways to advertise your property. Promotional advertisements through offices and MSL tours are some of the good ways to get other buyer agents to take a glimpse of your home and in turn they will promote it to their clients.
Primitive as it may seem but having ‘For Sale’ signs on your front lawn is still an effective way of advertising. A lot of Realtors use these signs to promote their web sites and use brochure boxes along with the signs to market the property. Your Realtors could also send mailing about your property to your neighbors, with your permission of course. Who knows, they may have a relative or friend or two who is seeking a house to purchase. You’ll never know, word-of-mouth can be and is a powerful advertising tool.
Make your home as bright, clean, and appealing as possible when you are planning to have Showings and Open Houses. Also, you might want to consider to be absent during the actual open house. This will allow your buyers to feel free as possible. Put yourself in the shoes of the buyer. Do you like to open closets and cabinets or doing some tests on the plumbing system or converse openly about what you think if the owner of the house is there? I think not. The place should be free as possible when you do an Open House, meaning no to your kids or your pets.
If the schedule of your open house has been decided, be sure to invite your neighbors. Who knows they might just have a friend or two who is a prospective tagging along as they make a short tour of your house.
