4 Ways to Score BIG When Selling Your Home!

Don't be caught 3rd and long!  NFL players prepare an entire season for the one chance to make it to the Super Bowl.  Right now is your chance to "get in the game!"  The next few months will be the best selling season of the year.  



It's the Super Bowl of Real Estate!

According to statistics over the last 4 years, March, April and May see a 30% spike in sales compared to the previous 5 months.  This means starting this week, if you've been thinking about selling your home, it's time to get our game faces on!  

In addition to the normal spike in sales, we're also currently experiencing the lowest level of residential home inventory on the Outer Banks since before 2006!  That means more buyers and less competition.  

To get in on the action, make sure you’re in winning condition with the following ideas:
  1. Do your spring clean early to get the home looking its best!
  2. Spruce things up!  Replace old, worn bedspreads, window treatments, shower curtains, rugs and other accessories with fresh ones to brighten things up!
  3. Get a home inspection.  There’s nothing worse than a surprise at the last minute.  Once you get your home under contract, there’s no reason to have the deal fall apart over an unexpected repair issue.  Address it early and it’s a non-issue later!
  4. Talk to your agent about setting the best possible price!  Don’t miss the best time of the year to get your home sold because you needed to “test” the market at a higher price.  All trends point to you paying for it later!
