Advice to Sellers: The Real Estate market continues changing. July is a transition month and the summer season is moving into a new phase. School has started which removes some buyers from the market; but, strong buyer demand continues. With that being said, homes available for sale remain on the market a shorter time period (days on market is decreasing). The 7 steps in the home selling process are: plan and prepare, obtain the services of a Realtor®, determine the price, market the home, sell the home, complete the closing, and finally move out of the home. In the plan and prepare step, the home owner should do everything to maximize the home’s appeal and the buyer demand. The determine the price step will cause the home owner to become familiar with the competition and the market value of the home. Will your home create that lasting impression? Are you current on the preventative maintenance items needed for your home? Have you de-cluttered your home? To maximize the selling price, have you done recent upgrades? While the Denver home market continues to be portrayed as a “seller’s market”, each and every home is unique which suggests professional assistance in selling the home.
