Fall 2018: Boston high rise condo season

Selling your Boston high rise condo is never a simple task. But with the right intentions, goals and help, you can get an edge on navigating the real estate landscape and yield a higher return on your investment.

With that in mind, here are 10 Fall 2018 selling season ideas to put into place

1. PURGE AND CLEAR THE WAY FOR THE NEW YEAR

Let’s take this moment to let go of everything we’ve been holding onto that no longer serves us. Now is the time to examine your Boston high rise condo and decide what stays and what goes.

Break down your Boston condo into rooms and tackle them one-by-one. De-clutter and simplify ruthlessly.

Empty closets
Clear bookcases
Spruce up the kitchen & clean off counters
Make bathrooms spotless
Flush out basements, attics, and garages

De-cluttering and tidying up your Boston high rise condo will be one of the best thing can do this Fall 2018 season. Not only will you feel much better, but it will increase your homes appeal and perceived value when buyers view it.

2. INCREASE YOUR BOSTON HIGH RISE CONDO VALUE

Knowing where to put your time and energy is essential to keep costs down while increasing your Boston condominium value for 2018. We’ve broken down our top tips here to help you discover where to put in the work to help you get the most out of your home for sale this year. We would also suggest reaching out to an agent that you trust for their advice. When making improvements to your home you want to be sure that you are going to get a return on that added investment. An agent will be able to advise you whether or not they think it’s going to be worth it to redo those cabinets, replace that carpet, or whatever it is you’re considering doing.

3. STAGE YOUR HOME EFFECTIVELY

Once you’ve effectively purged and cleaned your Boston condo you can devote more time in improving its appearance. Effective home staging can dramatically increase your homes perceived value and overall vibe. Attracting the right kind of buyers and getting you more value on your investment.

4. DON’T NEGLECT MINOR REPAIRS

It’s a good idea to set aside some time over a few weekends in 2017 to fix those pesky leaks, drips and cracks around the home. Take care of the issues now so they won’t crop up later in a report when you go to sell your home. You may even want to consider getting a home inspection before listing your home to see what a buyer might find, and to make sure that you’re not blindsided by costly repairs that you were unaware of.

Go the distance and invite a friend over, and get their opinion on what they think really needs to be modified or repaired to give off a good appeal. Better yet, get your agents opinion!

5. AVOID OVER-SPENDING ON RENOVATIONS

We all want to add value to our homes but sometimes our good intentions can end up costing us a lot more than we can handle, not only in monetary means, but in time and energy spent as well.

Tread carefully when it comes to big and risky renovations and ensure you take care of all the simple ways to increase your homes value without getting into a big mess if it isn’t necessary.
