Seek guidance from a local real estate agent that knows your market. A good agent should be able to tell you if your asking price is too ambitious. At the end of the day, your property is worth what it appraises for.

Hire a professional to take your listing photos because saving a nickel or dime on unprofessional work will cost you much more in the long run.

You get the opportunity to make one first impression. Upgrading your landscaping can make a huge difference. Make your grass a beautiful green, plant a few flowers. Paint, fix and clean up anything that’s broken in your yard.
4: You’re getting bad advice
Make sure you are working with an agent who is a local expert in your area & familiar with the type of home you are attempting to sell. This expert will not just be a “yes person” but actually be helpful.
5: The pre-approval is not properly vetted
All loan officers are not created equal! Make sure your real estate agent calls to verify the pre-approval and furthermore makes sure that the loan officer is competent.
In conclusion your home is a valued investment & if it hasn’t sold yet the above tips will help you meet your goal.
