5 Seasonal Home Selling Tips

Fall and Winter seasons in New England are as good a time as any to sell your home! You can take advantage of the current market to sell your home quickly and for a great price.

 With a shortage of homes for sale, I can help you grab hold of this wonderful opportunity! Buyers in the fall and winter seasons are serious buyers, trying to find their home quickly before the winter weather settles in.

Here are 5 tips for selling your home in the upcoming season.

 1. Take advantage of the beautiful outdoors and grab some exterior pictures of your home before the snow arrives. The colors of autumn create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. New England is a unique place that is amazingly beautiful in all seasons.

 Working with the weather when planning your photo shoot ensures gorgeous listing photos. This time of year not only allows for beautiful photos but offers a great opportunity to showcase nearby winter activities that your buyers can take advantage of in the colder months.

2. Stage for the season. Everyone loves to break out the cozy décor when the temperature starts to drop. Play it up when you’re staging your home. Showcase fireplaces and heating elements, pile high the throw blankets and pillows, and set out winter-spiced treats to make your home feel and smell inviting and warm.

 3. Take care of winter maintenance before the snow. Colder weather tends to highlight the imperfections in a home creating drafts and highlighting routine maintenance that hasn’t been taken care of yet like replacing filters, sealing windows and doors, and water damage. If it’s already cold outside, buyers will be spending a lot of time inspecting the interior of the home.

 4. Highlight curb appeal. Do your fall cleanup, raking leaves, cleaning gutters, trimming trees, and setting out potted plants. Make your home feel welcoming from the minute potential buyers pull up to the driveway.

 5. Hire an experienced agent. One of the most important steps in selling your home is having an experienced real estate agent by your side to guide you! Let me help you sell your slice of New England to happy buyers who love and appreciate your home like you do!
