Should I sell a home using an auction?

Author: admin  //  Category: Sell Home Fast

I want to sell a home fast and an auction seems the best route. I know they get about 10% compared to 7% for realtors.

But homes sold by auction usually sell for more than through the regular selling way or less.

Before you do:

Remove everything in the house, people like to see where they will put their furniture. Remember your taste is not their taste if furniture and cute stuff sitting around.

Paint the walls one color, usually white because others may not share your love of colors such as red, green, yellow. It will turn them off. I know I dislike red walls with a passion. lol

Repair everything no matter how small. You might get a women in there and they like everything to be fixed.

Wash windows inside and out.

Paint cabinets if needed.

A pretty kitchen and pretty bathrooms sell a house these days. Everyone wants pretty kitchens and bathrooms. This means nice floors, nice cabinets, etc.

Mow the yard back and front.

Clear out dead weeds, flowers, bushes, trees.

Make sure the roof does not leak.

It would be best to get an inspection and let the buyers at the auction see what he has to say.

Be sure to advertise.

God bless and have fun. Hope you make lots of money.
