you’re getting a divorce you own a house
together and you need to sell it
you want to get it over and done with
but did you know
that by rushing to put the house on the
market is not necessarily
going to speed up the process and
get it all over and done with faster?!
in this video i’m going to tell you why
and i’m going to tell you strategies for
how to get your house
sold faster and from borrow money
hi my name is tanya oda gopold and i’m a
top producing agent here in oakland and
the greater east bay
area and i understand how hard it is to
sell your house and due to a divorce
divorce sucks and even when it’s done
amicably
it still sucks and you know
oftentimes when it comes to
selling your house due to a divorce the
problems aren’t usually
with a house sale itself but everything
else, right?
selling your house faster and for more
money
will put you both into a better position
and you will both come out ahead
with less stress all houses require some
sprucing and freshening up
after people have been living in them
for some time and if you want to sell
your house faster
and for more money it’s almost required
but i’m not talking about spending large
amounts of money
on big projects or remodeling i’m
talking about
spending just enough to make the house
look good
desirable and fresh every house is
different and they all
need different things but every house
needs something
to present it in its best light because
this is what is going to attract buyers
and entice them to make offers
so not doing any of this sprucing up
could result in your house looking like
the bargain
in its price point and category or that
there’s something going on with the
sellers
and they’re desperate to sell no one
needs to know any of your business and
your house should not look like
the sellers are going through something
right so all of this
is stuff that you want to absolutely
avoid
so what am i talking about often it’s
just a simple matter of
painting in the interior and a good deep
cleaning
but it kind of depends on how hard your
family has lived in this house so
maybe um you need to have your hardwood
floors refinished because you had a big
dog
maybe the exterior paint needs to you
know be done
maybe you gotta tidy up your landscaping
maybe you gotta replace some door that
your teenage son
punched a hole in so it all just kind of
depends on you know
how hard this house has been lived in
and it also depends on
the area what the comparable homes are
going for what do they look like
all that kind of stuff because when you
put your house on the market
you are entering in a competition and
you need to make sure that your house is
presented correctly so that it looks
attractive and desirable because this is
what’s going to draw the buyers in
the nicer the presentation the faster
the buyers will be drawn in and the
sooner you will be in contract
and don’t get me wrong i’m not saying
that your house has to be perfect
far from that i’m just saying that it
needs to be presented correctly
because you can have the most beautiful
house and if it’s not presented
correctly
it’s not gonna sell the buyers aren’t
gonna be pulled in just look at all
those for sale by owner houses
that don’t sell on top of that the
better that your house is presented
not only will you draw in buyers faster
but you may
actually be able to draw in more than
one offer which
just speaking for myself because not all
agents can do the same thing
but more than one offer gives me what i
need to be able to
negotiate more money and better terms
for my clients
and to able to pick the buyer that is
actually going to be able to close the
deal
meaning that you will not only be able
to get more money
but you will be able to close the deal
faster and be over and done with
everything
sooner rather than later if you like
