With the Nashville market slow, how do you get your home to sell… not so slowly?

Even when the market slows, the two biggest factors are still playing a role in the outcome of your home: price and condition of your home!

First, you may want to consider lowering the price of your home. This truly makes your home much more desirable than any other home out there with the same criteria.

Second, if option number is not an option, go through the house and see if there are any cosmetic defects that you might have missed that need to be repaired. The buyer certainly needs to be nothing but 'wowed' when they walk in the door. Sure, any house can be clean from top to bottom, but are there any small things that will stand out to your buyers as a needed repair? If so, take care of them before you list your home for sale and if it's already listed, stop reading this and take care of them now.

Third, make sure you list your home with the right agent. Choosing the right Realtor is like going to court with an amazing lawyer – you know you have a better chance of winning! For the same price, agents can give many, many varieties of service. Make sure you choose one that is experienced, available on your schedule, is organized and truly wants nothing more than to help you, their client. Hmmm...sounds like me! Give me a call if you want the best service in Nashville! :)

Finally, if all else fails and you have the option to do so, pull your home from the market and wait for the market to improve. Sometimes having it off the market for a while can give a fresh perspective when it comes back on.

I hope some or all of this helps!! Good luck and happy selling!!
