Price it from real comparables

The right list price is based on what similar nearby homes recently sold for, adjusted for condition and features. Overpricing usually means more days on market and a lower final price.

Declutter and clean

Clear surfaces, remove personal photos and deep-clean everything. Buyers need to picture themselves living there.

Fix the small things

Dripping taps, sticky doors, burnt-out bulbs and scuffed paint all signal deferred maintenance. Fixing them is cheap and builds buyer confidence.

Think about the season

In winter, keep walks and driveways clear and the home warm and bright. In summer, a tidy yard and fresh planters make a strong first impression.
