Sell Your House Quickly

Why people build houses with its backside facing the street? Do they sell quickly?

I am looking at a vaction home which is about 20 years old and it is a nice chalet style house but it has a reversed configuration – it’s backside (plain with 2 windows) are on the street and the frontside is on its backyard. The owners says they built it to have a view of the woods but it looks odd. My concern is will it sell easily?

The garden is usually in the back… not close to the street, for privacy purposes. Also it’s nice to see the woods from your living room instead of viewing the cars passing the street.

Who has ever had a neighbor request you to paint your house so they could sell there house?

Why could such a person not admit the reason why they want you to paint your own house? How quickly would you expect a negative response to that sort of social behaviour?

I can understand that your house make not help their house be appealing to a buyer and requesting help from you to sell their home.

In that situation, you don’t benefit directly, except to make your own home more attrative for your own well-being.

Ask them when they want to come paint your house and give them some acceptable colors they can choose from so that you can approve the work before they start. (Hint, this is a sarcastic answer to your neighbor so they can simply mind their own business and get away from you now instead of moving later.)

quickest way to sell my house?

I live on the north east of England in a really nice area. We have a 4 bed detached house and want to sell it quickly without having to drop the price too much.

Are there any tactics worth using apart from using an estate agent? Like using the internet?

Any ideas welcome

Well, I’m no expert, in fact, I’m only 13, but I am very smart.

What I would do is neaten up the house. Decorate it. Make it look so attractive. It will drag the buyer’s attention. Plus, advertise in the newspaper, internet, posters, flyers, and signs.

Given the current economic climate,how much would you spend on re-vamping your house to sell it quickly ?

I have a 4 bedroom detached house in a nice area of Essex.
However we have lived here for 22 years and it is in need of updating.
I had the kitchen redone 6 years ago and that is OK.
Last year we had the hall ,stairs and landing decorated as well as two of the four bedrooms.
My big problem is the downstairs loo and the bathroom upstairs.
They are so dated but it will cost a lot of money to renovate them,and I am not sure we would get our money back.
Most people never like what you have done and rip it out anyway.
I am between a rock and a hard place-any suggestions or tips would be very welcome.!

Being as how you have done up some of the rooms and really just the lower toilet and upstairs bathroom require a tidy up then I would go as follows.
Make both rooms look bright and airy, whether by cleaning paintwork or touching it up till you are happy that it is not off putting to viewers sometimes a wash down with manders sugar soap will be of benefit to the paintwork.
Time spent on the garden will entice people to view as will ordinary things like clean bright windows and tidy curtains.
Have gas fires or CH serviced as this can help when documentation can show it is okay.
good luck.

I HAVE A MOBILE THAT NEEDS TO BE SOLD BEFORE THE END OF THE MONTH IT NEEDS SOME WORK BUT THE WORK IS NOT EXTENSIVE ITS ON LEASED LAND WITH LOTS OF POTENTIAL FOR A DOUBLE WIDE OR ADDITIONS. ITS ON A CORNER LOT AND CLOSE TO BEACHES AND SHOPPING ITS AN 84 INCLUDES A SHED WITH A LOFT AND ALREADY COMES WITH ELECTRIC 2 BEDROOMS 2 BATHS PARTIALLY FURNISHED CENTRAL AIR GAS HEAT ALL APPLIANCES WORK PETS ARE ALLOWED PARK HAS 2 POOLS 2 PLAYGROUNDS TENNIS COURT AN A PLACE FOR A BOAT. LOT RENT INCLUDES TRASH PICK UP WATER AND SEWER GENERAL MAITENENCE CAN WALK TO MAILBOX HOME ALSO HAS A BUILT IN BOOKCASE AND BAR 2 CEILING FANS.

Advertise that it is for sale in the newspaper, to start. Add curb appeal, by planting flowers outside, cleaning up your yard, keep it nicely mowed etc. If it looks nice on the outside interested buyers will think you have taken care of it on the inside as well. On the inside, clean off your counters. It will look like you have lots of room. Only one small appliance on your counter top. Get rid of clutter. Throw it away or donate it. Dishes have to be washed and put away. Floors have to be mopped and/or vacuumed. Clean the bathrooms until they sparkle. Bedrooms need to be organized, cleaned and beds made. All the windows need to be washed as well. There is competition out there and you want yours to look the best. Bottom line is the price. If the price is too high, you won’t get it sold. So think about what is the lowest price you can go. You only have twenty days to sell this. Good luck!

how can i sell a house fast?

i need to sell a house quickly because i need the money and renting is out of the picture because we have had to remodel the house due to tenants abusing the house and growing pot in it and other stuff… but its in perfect shape
if you want ot see it here is the website it is shown at for now

http://www.viviun.com/AD-78130/

we had a cleaning company clean it out and then we redid all of the flooring and put new furniture in it
also our house is probably worth four times of what every other house in out area is worth because its not a very developed area alot of rundown homes and families that you don’t want to be near but there are better homes just down the road a couple of miles

whatever the market value is – drop the asking price by 10%

whats the best way to sell my house FAST without losing too much money?

i’m getting divorced and need to sell quickly before the mortgage company starts to foreclose.

I really need more info, but a good Realtor will do a comparative market analysis (average price per square foot of similar homes sold in the same area over the last few months and shave a few thousand dollars off and may ask for an "as is" addendum to accompany any offers. Has the foreclosure been published yet? You will have at least 90 days (and probably 120) to close the house from the start of foreclosure. Unfortunately, you haven’t much time to negotiate. How "hot" is your market? You migh want to see if your Realtor will take a 5% listing, keeping 2% and offering 3% on the MLS. Hope this helps

How to successfully sell a house thru Century 21?

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 18:19:23 +0000

I have a house in Mexico and I’m using Century 21, it’s been 7 months now with no buyer. I live in the US. What are your recommendations for the houser to be sold more quickly? Any input is greatly appreciated!

Check up on your agent, inquire as to how much advertising she is personally doing, where, how often. Get copies of it. Just because an agency is international, doesn’t mean that your house is getting exposure. Has it had many showings? if so, with no offers, the price is probably too high.
Also check if the house is in good shape when it is shown. Being far away, you need to have an agent that is willing to get the place ready to show, if you cannot be there. Good Luck.

Investors, Fast cash to sell my home?

admin — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 15:41:10 +0000

Does anyone know of any legit company that will sell a condo fast (like those companys called, Sell your house in 24hrs, Fast cash for homes, Cash for homes, etc….) for at least what is owned on the loan?? Dont care if i get any profit from the sale of the condo, just want to break even and sell the condo. I am in CA. Please let me know if you know a company!!

If there is a lot of equity they will buy your house. They pay about 60 cents on the $ of the appraised value.

Obviously if you do not have 40% equity this is not going to work for you, your mortgage company will not let you sell for that.

Trying to sell my home FAST, in GA…?

admin — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 13:12:56 +0000

My ex-fiance and I have a home together and we’ve decided to go our separate ways. The home is in GREAT condition and its only 2 years old.
We really dont want to make money off it…. just want enough to pay the mortgage or possibly trade it in for something smaller in the area…neither one of us can afford this 275k (4br/2.5ba)home by ourselves but could afford something like a townhome.
Any investors out there…homes in this are will be worth a fortune and its a shame we can’t hold onto it!!!
Has anyone tried callin these ads? What do they have to offer? P.S. I live in Forsyth County…one of the fastest growing counties in the US.

Exposure is the only thing that will sell your home. You need to be on realtor.com and MLS and in GA it’s only $299 and it’s good for up to 12 months with no hidden charges or renewal fees. Plus you can cancel anytime with 48 hours notice.

You can still sell by owner and pay 0% even if they find you on Realtor.com (as long as they don’t have a contract with a buyer agent).

If an agent sells your home you pay 3% total commission. The Listing broker gets 0%.
