Increased inventory in the Phoenix market means home sellers must rally their innermost motivational forces to do what is necessary to attract potential buyers right out from under a sea of competitors. You can do it, but you\u2019ll need to roll up your sleeves and prepare to invest some time (and maybe even some cash) to achieve a swift and successful home sale. Even in this competitive market, homeowners who make a real effort to showcase their residence for maximum buyer appeal stand a chance of reaping the rewards of multiple offers in a short time frame\u2014but it takes planning, diligence, and an impartial frame of mine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Early on, before you list your home, start visiting open houses and model homes in your area to get an idea of what your competition is doing, then mimic those with the best buyer appeal, and avoid the mistakes of sellers who just throw a sign up on the lawn and wait\u2026and wait, as bidders snatch up other properties in the neighborhood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">If you\u2019re a motivated seller, here are some expert tips to make your house stand out to potential buyers in a sea of market inventory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"><strong>1.

Separate items to save\/pack, donate, and toss out.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Let go. Be ruthless.

Kill two birds with one stone by packing away the items you\u2019re keeping and moving to your new house, but don\u2019t need to use anytime soon. Put packed boxes in rented self-storage facility if possible. Avoid storing packed items in your home\u2019s garage, attic, basement, or other storage areas. Buyers covet storage space\u2014if yours is packed with boxes, excess furniture, holiday decorations and other trappings, it diminishes their perception of the actual storage space they crave. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Clear out closets.

Have your children choose a few favorite playthings and have them help you pack up the rest to \u201ckeep them safe until you move to your new home.\u201d Remove the children\u2019s artwork and your magnet collection from the refrigerator and clear all countertops (bathrooms and kitchen), table tops and desktops of appliances, accessories, books, papers, and miscellaneous household flotsam and jetsam. Expose those shiny, clean surfaces that buyers want to see. Keep your coffee maker and toaster tucked away in a cabinet after breakfast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Religious artifacts, sports memorabilia, political ephemera and the like should all go into storage. Often, even the most subtle or artful objects can, rightly or wrongly, offend some buyers and give them a negative impression of your house. Professional stagers avoid creating a distinct personal style in a home they\u2019re staging to sell, opting instead for neutral color palettes for walls, carpet, and furnishings. They also stick to minimal design elements that appeal to a broad range of buyers who respond more favorably to a subtle canvass when they\u2019re visualizing their family, their furnishings, and their d\u00e9cor in the space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"><strong>3.

Great photos not only show online viewers the most appealing aspects of a home, but they also draw serious bidders to the property since these images stand out among the hundreds (or even thousands) of listings they peruse online. Exceptional photos can help ignite bidding wars, and potentially reduce the length of time your house sits on the market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Too many home sellers lose the absolute critical first 30 days on the market by neglecting critical essentials like hiring a professional real estate photographer (a bargain when it comes down to the return on investment (ROI). Decluttering and depersonalizing the house, making minor (or major) repairs and improvements, or staging the home for buyer appeal also fall low on their priority list. This reluctance to invest in the successful sale of a home sabotages any notions of a positive outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Instead of taking effective, actionable steps to achieve their goals and get the house sold, lax sellers almost always settle on plan B: <em>if it doesn\u2019t sell quickly<\/em>, <em>they\u2019ll reduce the price after 30 days.<\/em> Their first mistake was, most likely, pricing it too <\/span>high<span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"> to begin with\u2014an inexperienced home seller is very likely to get caught up in the excitement of a presumptive financial windfall. Unfortunately, these sellers are more likely going to hire an inexperienced or indifferent agent who readily agrees to list the property at the client\u2019s inflated price simply to hang on to the listing. This is another painful lesson that many na\u00efve sellers learn the hard way. A reputable agent will offer professional guidance on the industry\u2019s method for determining a home\u2019s market value and prevail upon the seller to price their home for a positive and realistic outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"><strong>4. Pricing your home right: overpriced homes won\u2019t sell, even after you lower the price<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_972\" style=\"width: 260px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2017\/12\/house-for-sale-2845213_640-e1512498813901.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-972\" class=\"size-full wp-image-972\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2017\/12\/house-for-sale-2845213_640-e1512498813901.jpg\" alt=\"home staging\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-972\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Price your home right!<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">The fact is, no matter how much money you think your home is worth, pricing a house to sell is a science of sorts. It requires comparing similar properties in the area, adjusting the pricing according to what competing properties have to offer, tracking market movements, and taking stock of current inventory in order to determine the home\u2019s value, or range of value, according to experts. It\u2019s a practical, fact-based method that sellers should not dismiss. Lenders provide mortgage loans to home buyers based on the property\u2019s true market value. The seller\u2019s opinion is not a factor for negotiation, even if the seller finds a buyer willing to pay the seller\u2019s price (unless the buyer wants to pay cash). No lender will loan a borrower more money than a property is worth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Appraisers utilize the same method when evaluating a home\u2019s value, and while no two appraisals ever match exactly, they\u2019re generally in the same ballpark. In a nutshell, there is no pulling a home\u2019s price tag out of a seller\u2019s emotional estimation of the home\u2019s value. The numbers have to match up with market value\u2014what a property can sell for in a competitive market is based on the features and benefits of that property, the overall real estate market, supply and demand, and the prices at which similar properties in the same condition have sold.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Pricing your home right is critical to selling it. Your asking price determines how long your home will sit on the market. Pricing a home too high is a huge risk at best, and a devastating setback at worst. Such an ill-advised decision can dramatically reduce the number of interested buyers willing to view the house, and as a result, the home sits on the market too long. Houses that remain on the market too long evoke misgivings in buyers who steer clear, So, even if you lower your price to one that reflects market value after 30 days, buyers have by now become dubious and have moved on. At this point, many sellers who made the mistake of overpricing at the start decide they have no choice but to take the home off the market and wait six months or more before they relist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">The reason why sellers should not overprice their home is simple. It won\u2019t sell! Conventional wisdom once endorsed pricing high to encourage buyers to make a counter-offer that could still have benefited the seller. This logic no longer applies in modern markets. Not only do over-priced homes fail to sell, once you\u2019ve overpriced your property the odds are stacked against you that it will sell for what it should have if priced properly from day one!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"><strong>5. Curb appeal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_974\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2017\/12\/CURB_APPEAL.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-974\" class=\"size-full wp-image-974\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2017\/12\/CURB_APPEAL.png\" alt=\"curb appeal\" width=\"350\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2017\/12\/CURB_APPEAL.png 350w, https:\/\/gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2017\/12\/CURB_APPEAL-300x183.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-974\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 10pt\">Curb appeal attracts buyers inside<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Arizona provides the kind of drop-dead beautiful outdoor environment that inspires many homeowners to showcase their home\u2019s exterior charm with native desert landscaping and outdoor living spaces that capitalize on the desert\u2019s extraordinary and distinctive flora and fauna. Huge expanses of space punctuated by the surprising mien of the saguaros, cactuses, Palo Verde trees, native succulents, and countless wildflower species in the colorful, yet rugged spectacle of the desert provide an amazing diversion for desert gazers to take it all in while soaking up the sun\u2019s warmth. It\u2019s a sensory overload in the best way imaginable, surrounded by mountains, deserts, canyons, valleys, plateaus, prairies and rivers that intoxicate even casual observers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Curb appeal is essential to home values in Arizona. It carries considerable influence in attracting home buyers, and a well-tended desert garden, a yard blanketed in drought-tolerant grasses and desert native trees, outdoor living spaces that merge nature and lifestyle bliss seamlessly. Curb appeal also includes impeccably maintained fa\u00e7ades and entryways that capture home buyers\u2019 attention at a glance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Unfortunately, many home sellers overlook the potential of curb appeal; they disregard the forsaken lawn furniture scattered randomly around the yard, the overgrown bushes, the weathered front door, peeling trim paint, and other baffling eyesores that deter buyers from viewing the home\u2019s interior. Curb appeal is all about first impressions, and you know you only get one chance at a making a good one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Before listing your Arizona home for sale, walk around your property, objectively viewing every aspect\u2014structural integrity, landscape conditions, tidiness, cosmetic flaws. How does your home\u2019s exterior look? Do you see any wood rot? When was it last painted? Is there any noticeable damage or discoloration of the siding? Are there any cracks or holes in the stucco that need repair?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">First impressions begin with your home\u2019s exterior, and once you list it, the exterior will be viewed repeatedly in photos across numerous websites and browsers by potential home buyers. Your home\u2019s exterior should receive the time and resources necessary to make sure it attracts serious buyers. Pay close attention to every detail as you survey your home\u2019s periphery and surfaces. View it from every imaginable angle, and make an honest assessment of its front fa\u00e7ade, door, and entryway\u2014your home\u2019s curb appeal focal point. View your property impartially and unsentimentally; is there any debris, toys, tools, or other items scattered about? Do gutters and door frames need any surface repairs or cosmetic touch-ups? Does anything need replacing? Is the home\u2019s siding or paint noticeably chipped or discolored?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"><strong>6.
