When you’re selling with flat fee MLS, you’ll find that - just like it would be if you were selling on your own - you’re going to be the one who gets to show the property to would-be buyers. Do you think you’re ready for that?

Before you show you’re home, there are some things that you’re going to want to be sure that you’ve taken care of. There’s the lawn: curb appeal is a major selling point for a lot of buyers, so if you’ve got dead grass, it’s time to plant some seed. Likewise, if your shrubs are out of control, you’re going to want to make sure that they get trimmed back. If you’ve got leaves down, you’ll want to rake them up.

The next thing that people will see is the inside of your front door, so you’ll want to make sure that the entryway is appealing. Make your home welcoming - visually, and to the other senses.

Part of that is keeping the noise down - which may mean having the kids visit their friends or asking someone to watch the dog for a while. Part of it means making sure that those things that make your house your home are put away: you want buyers to start thinking about the house as their home, not yours.

Showing is key to selling your home (just like flat fee MLS); make sure that you’re ready for it by following these home showing tips.
