5 Foolproof Ways to Draw in Offers on Your Home

Are you planning to sell your home at the Lake of the Ozarks this Spring? Listing your home can be nerve-racking because everyone wants their home to sell quickly. Unfortunately, in some cases, it can take a while for your home to sell. The good news is, the Fran Campbell Team has some great techniques to draw in offers on your home. Here are five foolproof ways to draw in offers on your home.


1. Staging is Important
With the increase in popularity of HGTV home improvement shows and home décor magazines, we live in a world where looks matter, A LOT! If you want to gain offers quick, you may need to go beyond decluttering your home. Not all homes will benefit from major home upgrades, but most homes will benefit from taking the time to stage your home. Doing small things like painting and adding new light fixtures can make a big difference. Even just trimming your hedges can increase curb appeal and draw more buyers into your home.

2. Use Professional Photography
In today’s digital world, most buyers will view your home online before they see it in person or think to make an appointment for a showing. In some ways, your online photos are the new “curb appeal.” While curb appeal (the appearance of your home from the road) is still important, in some ways your pictures are more important. Your online photos are usually the buyer's first impression of your home. Consider hiring a professional photographer to take your pictures. This will help to leave a lasting impression of your home in the buyer’s mind.

3. List Your Home Updates
If you have done any home repairs, be sure to list these improvements in the description. Things like fresh paint, new floors, a new roof, updated plumbing, or updated electrical are things you should include if you have made these updates. Listing these will send a message to the buyers that you have kept up with the maintenance of your home. Also, repairs such as a new roof can be costly. If the buyers are confident they will not have to sink more money into the home after they purchase it, they will be more likely to be interested in your home.

4. Use a Real Estate Agent
A lot of sellers post a for sale by owner sign in their front yard and expect to receive offers on their home quickly. It is extremely difficult to make your home known without a real estate agent. The only way potential buyers find out about your home is by word of mouth or by driving by. Hiring a real estate agent at the Lake of the Ozarks can make a big difference in selling your home. The Fran Campbell Team are experts in Lake of the Ozarks real estate and we can help you market your home in a way that will get buyers to make offers on your home in a timely manner. Using a real estate agent could be the make or break to selling your home. Experience the best real estate service at the Lake of the Ozarks and contact the Fran Campbell Team!

5. Have an Open House
Along with staging your home, having an open house can get a lot of potential buyers in your home. To make your open house the most successful, make sure that it is advertised well to ensure people know you are having your open house. Consider doing a few extra things to entice people to come. Serve drinks and light snacks, hire someone to entertain children such as a clown, and consider hiring a sign-waver. These added bonuses will cost you a little extra money but if it sells your home, it may be worth it.

Getting buyers to make an offer on your home doesn’t have to be hard or a lengthy process. The Fran Campbell Team is here to help you get offers on your home.
