Looking to Sell Your Home?
Homeowners contemplating selling a home in the Denver market can expect
an average of 96 days on the market. However it is important to know
36% of the homes coming on the market are selling within the first 30
days.
Facts like these valid more than ever before the importance of having
your home positioned and priced right on the market. Homes that are
selling stand out above the crowd in both price and condition.
I have found through my experience, a homeowner is better off taking a
month to prepare a home for market then putting it on the market and
trying to prepare for a showing. With so many homes on the market and
not enough buyers to go around, buyers are not interested in waiting
for the home to be ready. They move on.
By taking the time to make your home sparkle, you invest your time
wisely. One month of prep could very easily translate into 30 days or
less marketing time. I can only speak for myself and those who have
indicated to me, they prefer NOT to have to worry about showing a home
every day for months on end!

Great advice Krystal. So often clients think they need to get on the market before the home is ready and lose the WOW factor on showings the first few weeks. Homes are sold within the first 5 minutes of showing. If there is no WOW, buyers move on.
