ADVICE ON SELLING A HOME

In Austin, Texas there are too many homes on the market which look good for a buyer to consider a home that is not move-in ready. Unless you are looking for an investor, your home must appeal to a buyer as a place he/she wants to live. It also must appeal to the REALTOR® who is looking at the photos in MLS and deciding which homes to show.

As a REALTOR®, I scrutinize those photos. It's hot out there and gas is expensive. I don't want to waste my buyers time or mine looking at homes that don't cut it. Clean, repair, remove and stage! And clean again.

P.S. No longer will a carpet allowance do. Replace them.
