How to Maximize Viewings, while Minimizing inconvenience!

How to Maximize viewing, while Minimizing inconvenience!!



If you want to sell your house or condo, you need to make it as conveniant as possible for potential buyers to view. That's a given. The market can move fast these days, and you don't want home shoppers and their agents to move onto other interesting opportunities just because they can't get in to see yours.
So how do you make your property available for viewing while minimizing the inconvenience to you and your family?
One of the most effective way sto ensure ease of access is to put a lock box near your front door. This allows agents to show your property as soon as they hear from intersted homebuyers - striking while the iron is hot.
Without a lock box, an appointment would have to be scheduled. The delay could stiffle buyer mementum. Worse, many home shoppers may skip your property in favour of others they can see right away.
Rest assured, the ER Team are professionals and will respect your privacy and the security of your property. Working with the ER Team, you can set rules regarding when and under what circumstances they may enter for viewing. (For example "Tuesdays to Thursdays, 12pm-3pm & Saturdays 10am-4pm".)
When potential buyers visit, they often feel like intruders. Its awkward for them - and you - if you are at home. So, if possible, take your family to the park, a movie, or a local cofee shop during the scheduled viewing times.
Another great strategy is to plan viewings around your schedule, at times when you're out of the house anyway. Ifyou take your kids to soccer on Saturday afternoons, make your property available for viewing during that same time period.
With a little planning, you can maximize the number of viewings, with minimal inconvenience to you and your family. This will greatly increase your chances of selling sonner, and for the best price.
