How To Sell Your House Fast - Techniques That Work

How to sell a house fast does not mean dropping the price as most realtors seem to tell their clients, especially if those who have had it on the market for a long time

In fact you should do quite the opposite. Dropping the price does not guarantee a sale. All it does is cheapen your house and possibly expose it to a few bargain hunters who will still try to drive the price down even further. Can you afford to lose a hundred thousand dollars?

Another myth about how to sell a house fast is you need to get hundreds of people through your house before it will sell. Bulldust! You only need one if that one is the right person in the first place. The challenge is to find the right buyer sooner than later. And once that potential buyer has fallen in love with the house, price is not usually the issue. (Naturally they will want to bargain but if you are asking market price you still have room to move)

Try these proven tips if you want to sell a house fast without dropping the price:

* Lodge EYE CATCHING unique advertisements that create interest in your home

* A SPECIFICALLY worded ad in a local or national newspaper will get the phone ringing quicker than anything

* STAND OUT from the crowd, ensure your advertisement is different to all the others especially the standard realtor advert. It's the words that count not the pictures at this stage

* Use the internet to RESEARCH for tips on writing eye catching advertisements. Its not as hard as you may think

* Now lodge an advert on the INTERNET. You will find many online real estate websites that are free. You do not need your own website to find potential buyers

* PHOTOGRAPHS can be loaded onto the website. Purchasers look for pictures of the kitchen, bedrooms, lounge, bathrooms and patio areas. A basic digital camera or phone is all you need

* Make your photos inviting, set the mood. FLOWERS or a COLOURFUL bowl of fruit are an inexpensive way to lift the appeal of your house

Now that you have their interest and they want to inspect your home, it is important we appeal to ALL their senses, not just one or two. We use all our senses when buying, so ensure your house

- is clean and tidy (hide personal items)

- flowers bring a room to life

- smells nice - bake bread or brew coffee

- soft music in the background (close windows if noisy outside)

- it must feel warm and cosy or cool and relaxing depending on the season

TIP: Ensure your home appeals to females if you want to sell a house fast, they are the ultimate decision makers
