Preparing Your House For Market

In the old days, the real estate agent did the three Ps of home marketing. Put a for sale sign in the yard, put it on the MLS, and pray for a buyer.

Buyers typically consider many homes when searching for a home, so it is important to prepare the home for the market, before it is photographed or shown.  As part of Tony’s pre-marketing services, he carefully inspects the house to make suggestions that will benefit the seller by way of a higher sales price and quicker closing.

Examples of our suggestions are uncluttering the closets to make them look larger, interior or exterior paint as needed, pruning shrubbery to enhance curb appeal, washing the windows, etc… Tony can orchestrate these items with the seller.

For many years, Tony has compiled a “Vendor List”- a list of various individuals and companies a seller can hire to do the things necessary to prepare your home for the market. Tony will coordinate all these items if you like.

Your house only has one chance to make a good first impression. Let Tony Hall show you how to make this happen!
