Le'ts do a walk-through and determine all that your house has to offer.

1. Price it rightIf you want to get the best possible price for your home and minimize the time it stays on the market, you need to price it correctly from the beginning. Ginger can give you a clear picture of Magnolia's market and can provide you with a comparative market analysis (CMA). A CMA contains detailed information on comparable homes in your area, including square footage, date built, number of bedrooms, lot size and more. It lists pending sales and houses sold in your area in the past six months, along with their actual sale prices.

   By comparing your home to similar homes in Magnolia and reviewing their list prices and actual selling prices, I can help you arrive at a fact-based assessment of your home’s market price.

Prepping your house for sale

You want to make a positive first impression when you list your home for sale. Here are some tips on how to enhance your home’s best features:

Work on your curb appeal

Some great things to improve your home's curb appeal are to get rid of moss on your roof, power wash your front walk, porch, deck, and patio. Clean up the garden and mow the lawn, trim the hedges, weed the flowerbeds and add spots of color with container plants. Clean all the windows inside and out and repair them if they don’t open and close easily.

Refresh, repair, and repaint

This goes for interiors and exteriors. If you see peeling paint, add a fresh coat. If it isn't already, consider painting rooms a neutral shade of white or grey. It's also a good idea to make necessary repairs as you don’t want to turn off a buyer with a dripping faucet, a broken doorbell, a clogged downspout or a cracked windowpane.

Deep-clean, from floor to ceiling

Clean rugs, drapes and blinds, and steam-clean carpeting. Get rid of any stains or odors. Make sure kitchen appliances, cupboards and counters are spotless and that bathrooms shine.

Declutter and depersonalize

Clean, light-filled, expansive rooms sell houses. So be sure to downsize clutter everywhere in your home, including cupboards, closets, and counters. You might also consider storing some furniture or personal items to make the rooms look more spacious. Take advantage of views and natural light by keeping drapes and blinds open.

1. I will get my professional photographer to take pictures of your home.
2. Then we will list your home.
3. An open house is the best for sellers to get a close up look at your home and for them to ask me questions about your home.

1. When a buyer makes an offer on your home, it’s usually contingent on a professional inspection. A standard inspection includes heating and cooling, interior plumbing and electrical systems; the roof, attic, and visible insulation; walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; and the foundation, basement, and visible structure. The inspector will be looking for cracks in cement walls, water stains, and wood rot.You can always opt for having an inspection done prior to putting your house on the market, so you can address any potential problems in advance. I can give you several recommendations for qualified inspectors that other neighbors have used in the Magnolia area.
