1) Hire a professional real estate agent As already mentioned selling your home is a major decision which means it is a major financial transaction.  Trust only a professional realtor to help you sell your property fast at the maximum price.  Some people think they would save tons of money if they get their relatives to sell their properties for them. This is a serious mistake. Only resort to this if your relative is a realtor. Otherwise you might end up selling your property for a lesser price. Or if it could stay in the market for a longer period of time.

When you are working with a real estate agent make sure that you are not locked in a contract by including a guaranteed clause. Your agent will understand that you only want to protect yourself, and that you’re both working together as a team to move the sale fast at the best price.

2) Sell when the market is hot. You have a better chance of selling at the price you want when the market is hot. However, when you buy property in the same market prices would also be higher.  This means you need to be aggressive in your next buy.

If you don’t want to sell when the real estate market is cool you can invest in improvements and repairs so you add more value to your home while waiting for the market to get stable.

3) Keep in mind your Days on Market. Your chances of selling your home at the price you want diminishes the longer that it stays on the market.  When your property stays in the market for more than one month it becomes a stale listing.  When this happens take the necessary steps to move the home sale fast like reviewing your price, making some repairs and staging an open house with the new information.

4) Competitive pricing. As mentioned above price is a huge factor in determining how fast you can sell your house. Don’t overprice. Selling prices are determined by current market conditions and even a minimal 3% over the market value will turn away prospective buyers. If the market is too weak and gives you a very low selling price, you can wait it out until the market improves.

5) Never lie. Don’t lie about room sizes, unfinished basements, square footage.  When you lie about these matters in your listings you will disappoint prospective buyers.  It’s very hard to turn around disappointed people so be honest.
