How to
Improve the Odds of an Offer
1. Price it right.
Set a price at the lower end of your property’s realistic
price range.
2. Prepare for visitors.
Get your house market ready at least two weeks before you
begin showing it.
3. Be flexible about
showings. It’s often disruptive to have a
house ready to show at the spur of the moment. But the more
amenable you can be about letting people see your home, the
sooner you’ll find a buyer.
4. Anticipate the offers.
Decide in advance what price and terms you’ll find
acceptable.
5. Don’t refuse to drop the
price. If your home has been on the market
for more than 30 days without an offer, you should be
prepared to at least consider lowering your asking price.
