As a follow up to the “Home Improvement Projects” post, you should not dump money into your home and then stop there! You could waste money if you do not, what we in the real estate industry call, “stage” your property. According to the National Association of REALTORS®, homes in “Good” or “Excellent” condition sold for an average of 96% of the listed or asking price. However, homes in “Better” condition sold for an average of 92% of the listed price. That is a 4% difference, which does not sound like a lot, but let us look it that a bit closer. On a $180,000 home, which is the current average in the Central Florida, Lake County, Clermont area, 4% is ($180,000 x .04 =) $7,200! So, if you are thinking about moving, and you want to sell your home, read below for tips on how to command higher bids on the sale of your house and make $7,200 or more!

One of the most asked questions we have had to answer so far when we help sell homes (though I am sure there will be plenty more!) includes “What can I do to be able to ask more for my home?” The general question being, in the current real estate market, how does one increase the property price, or home value? So of course, I do some research to avoid providing inaccurate information. Some things I would have not considered on my own, others made complete sense, and still others surprised me.

A shameless re-post from my Facebook debut.
Well – I am finally compelled to break my Social Media radio silence. This first post is a long one, so I am appreciative of those who take the time to read it. If you can get all the way through it… there is nothing in it for you… other than my thanks which you already have. But let us see who does anyway!
