Happy Monday! Wherever you were this past weekend, I hope you were warm and by a cozy fire. Wow, it was cold here.
Even though it’s cold outside, the Wilmington market is starting to heat up. We have definitely seen an increase in showings in January and sells are on the rise too.
I was at a listing appointment recently and the sellers were asking me what the main factors were that cause a home to sell or not. I thought this might be a question many were thinking so I thought I’d share my 2 cents worth.
A property is going to sell as a result of 1 or all of the following factors: Price, Condition, and Location. It all boils down to one of these 3 reasons. You can’t MOVE a property so you are really left with price and condition. If it’s in excellent, move in condition you’re definitely more likely to get the highest price the market will allow. If it needs paint, landscaping and updating, you’re going to have to adjust the price accordingly to get it sold. Think about it, have you ever purchased a property for any reason other than the price, condition or location?
Our goal at The Cameron Team is to get you as much money as possible in the least amount of time. We want to prepare your home so that it’s in the best condition possible to garner you the highest price the market will allow. Because of that, we offer a FREE staging consultation with a Professional Stager. She’ll go with you room by room and make suggestions to show your home in the best light both online in photos and in person. If you’d like to discuss your selling options, give me a call at 910-202-2546 and we can set up a time to meet.
Have a great week, stay warm and remember The Cameron Team for all your real estate needs.
