Selling and Staging Tips for Alamogordo real estate:

What is that first impression?  People see your home photo first. Whether online or in a magazine; make sure your photo of the front of the house sells itself. Take the picture on a sunny day when your home shows the best at the right time of the year. Be sure to include flowers that compliment your house color and draw the eye to the expanse of the house, not a garbage can that could be looming in a near by neighbors yard.

When you show the house: Be sure to leave the house so the buyer can envision themselves in the house and not be distracted by your tastes or lack of cleanliness. Be sure to turn on all the lights in the house so a buyer can walk into a brightly lit home.

  Don't forget the following:

• Cut the grass
• Remove any clutter from the yard
• Trim hedges
• Weed gardens
• Wash steps, windows, railings, doors, etc
• Paint if needed
• Remove unnecessary clutter from garages

Repair everything that potentially could need it.  Buyers will notice details. Get rid of the clutter, repair leaky faucets, wage war on dust and clean until your home shines. Small things can make a potential buyer walk away. Clean like you have never cleaned before. 

Remember to:

• Shampoo carpets
• Clean tubs, toilets and showers and hang fresh towels
• Oil squeaky doors
• Fix things like broken hinges and light switches 

Call in the reserves.   As you prepare your Alamogordo real estate, don't rely solely on your own judgement. It's hard to be objective when you're the owner. We can helpful, professional tips on how to make your home more marketable, but also ask for help from your close friends and neighbors for their honest opinion of your home. Don't be offended as you need to sell, not argue.

Check the odor.  Nothing will turn a buyer away faster than an odd smell. Try to eliminate smoking, food and pet odors. And don't leave any clues. If potential buyers see a dog or an ashtray, they'll be on the lookout for smells and stains.

Remember the goal. The goal is to sell the house, by whatever means. Yes, you need to get a certain amount of money out of it but also don't be offended when the buyer asks for certain repairs or negotiate terms. The goal is get out of the house, not argue over petty issues that could break the sale. Determine what is really important and be willing to let go of all the others.
