It doesn’t matter where you live, what kind of home you have or what time of year it is. If you’re looking to sell your home quickly, you’ll need to do a better job than other local homeowners who are competing against you. Try these top three tips to secure a sale within 60 days.
1) Enhance Its Appearance
When it comes to selling your home, looks are everything. If the appearance of your home is impressive, it will be more inviting to potential buyers. Remove any items that make the home distinctly yours, such as family photos, kids’ toys, or personal items. Ensure that every space is meticulously clean and clutter free to demonstrate that it is a well-kept property.
It is also extremely beneficial to neutralize the design of your home. Maybe you love the red walls in your living room or the fluffy pink area rug in your bedroom, but this doesn’t leave much room for others’ imagination. Make your home a blank canvas upon which buyers can project their own idea of a dream home.
2) Price Wisely
While everyone would love to sell their property for more than market value, inflating your asking price could delay a sale. Research the asking prices of comparable properties in your neighborhood and consult a reputable real estate professional for advice.
There are several other strategies you can use to price your home for a quick sell. Psychologically, certain prices are more attractive to buyers even if there’s marginal difference; a home priced at $599,000 is more attractive than a home that’s priced at $600,000. Although there’s marginal difference between these two prices, the home that’s priced just under the century mark will likely sell quicker.
3) Go The Extra Mile
One of the best ways to make your home stand out from the competition is to offer something that no one else is. Whether it’s high quality photos or a video tour of your home, your listing can provide viewers with a unique look at your property that encourages them to become attached to it right away.
Several other incentives can be offered to help you close quickly, such as including home appliances and transferring your warranties over to the buyer. You can also offer to cover their closing costs, either partially or fully, which is another financial perk that will set your home apart from the rest. Everyone likes a gift-with-purchase, but few sellers offer them.

Professionally designed, professionally remodeled from the studs out, meticulously maintained, and lovingly lived in -on the inside this home is the next best thing to a new-build while on the outside it's a ''sleeper,'' retaining the timeless and unassuming charm of its established, original 55+ Sun City neighborhood. The owners had a vision to redesign this home as a vacation destination for their out-of-state family and friends. It was imagined and built to combine stunning visuals with both a casual and comfortable feel. It's practical for a retired couple of two, and equally as practical when all the kids (with all your grandkids) fly in. From 2016 through 2019, this home received the ultimate Cinderella make-over. Click on ''More'' for a sample of the exhaustive list of updates. New plumbing throughout; completely new electrical including recessed lighting and hard-wired smoke detectors to keep you safe; new drywall with rounded corners, high ceilings, and a beautiful Santa Fe texture that makes the walls look plastered; all one tile from the inside laundry room through the kitchen, closets and bathrooms to all three (or four) bedrooms; new bathrooms with uniquely designed, extra-large, travertine showers and chair-height toilets just to make life a little easier; new show-stopper expanded entertainer's kitchen with three ovens, a butler's pantry/laundry room with removable desk, and a 10 foot beverage center with built-in wine cooler, and a whopping 9-and-a-half foot by 5 foot quartz island and two quartz sinks; new dual-pane, Milgard windows; and a new roof with 38 panels of low $ leased solar on a contract that never goes up. Even the formal dining room has an added closet and removable built-in desk, so it can be used for a 4th bedroom, a den , or to sit the whole family for holiday meals. But wait, we still have the outdoor space: step through an over-sized sliding door from the kitchen, from the great room, or from the primary bedroom onto a vast (59'x14') covered patio large enough for five tables of eight, built-in cabinets, and a cornhole set up. There, your eye is immediately drawn to a stunning, propane heated, Pebble-tech pool with a salt system, an in-floor cleaning system, and a marble-topped, raised, and a huge 14-foot-long hot tub with spillway. This show-piece pool sits in an over-sized yard with 6-foot, stucco privacy wall, and it sits next to a gorgeous, granite-topped, 9 foot outdoor kitchen that includes a fridge and a 36 workstation sink with disposal. Finally, the two car garage also has room for up to two golf carts while an extra slab was poured next to the drive way to provide extra, off-street parking. If you're looking for a way to entice the kids to visit and/or a home professionally designed for entertaining, this home was built for you. You should come see.
