How to Sell Your Lake Home for More Money

If you want to maximize your return on your lake home, check out these tips from Lake Homes Realty’s CEO, Glenn Phillips.

1. Remove Attachment: Refrain from equating your attachment to the home with its value. You should treat this process like any other transaction.
2. Price Strategically (Appropriately): Overpricing your home will cause it to become stale on the market, which will inevitably force you into a series of price cuts. Soon, you’ll notice buyers only presenting you with lowball offers.
3. Use Time Correctly: If you sell your home too quickly, you may be leaving money on the table. Give out-of-town buyers a chance to present you with better offers.
4. Think NET vs Price: Commission fees will affect the net earnings on your home, but investing in a solid real estate agent will ensure you walk away with the most money possible.
5. Extra Exposure: The right exposure will make all the difference in selling your home. Websites like LakeHomes.com have a database full of qualified buyers looking for a home like yours.

Before you put your house on the market, be sure to consider these factors to get the most from your investment!
