If you are considering putting your property up for sale in the foreseeable future, then you need to be doing all you can to ensure that the sale is as successful as possible. Anything less would be a waste of your time and money!

To sell property successfully, you need to be doing more than plonking it on the market and allowing it to sell itself. You need to be proactive in the way that you deal with the marketability of the estate, and you need to be astute when it comes to the transaction that follows. To see exactly what needs to be done, check out the advice below.

Choose an active agent

An active real estate agent is one that has a plethora of clients in the geographical location that they work in. To get an idea of the busiest ones in your local area, check to see how many of their boards are dotted around. The more there are, the more work that particular agent has got, ultimately meaning that they can be trusted to see successful property transactions through in your community. Once you find an agent that you deem to be active enough to handle your property sale, check them and vet them using a directory — RateMyAgent offer real estate agent reviews that are comprehensive in regards to recommendations from property sellers like yourself, and this sort of stamp of approval is the best there is.

The real estate agent that you choose will provide you will provide your sale with a backbone, and you need to ensure that it is as strong as can be.

Don’t be afraid to negotiate

A pitfall many property sellers fall down is that they don’t take part in a bit of negotiating. Doing so, however, will give you the best chance possible of getting the best price possible.

At the stage of picking an estate agent, you should, first, be getting an idea of what your property is worth by studying the recent selling trends in both your local area and the market into which your property falls, and you should then be resolute when it comes to deciding an appropriate asking price based on the information that you have gathered. If you think your property is worth more, tell them!

Prepare your property for viewings

No potential buyer is going to want to invest in your property if they can’t see themselves living in it or making money from it going forward. For this reason, you have to prepare the estate and make it look presentable by giving it a thorough clean and tidy up. Also, you need to make the property look as if it can be made fit for purpose. To do this for buyers that want to live in the property themselves, you should be taking down any photographs that may be hanging up, as this will help them to envisage hanging their own up and forging their own life in their new home.

You deserve to get the absolute best price for the property that you sell, but you’re only going to get it if you take the successful selling advice above.
