Selling Information for Las Vegas Sellers

Maybe you are selling to cash in on the local buyer's market, maybe you need to move out of state for a job or maybe you are moving to the Las Vegas real estate area for family, job, or just plain fun! Whatever the reason for selling your exisiting home, there are some simple tips to start with on staging your home.

Start with the outside:

• Cut the grass
• Remove any clutter from the yard
• Trim hedges
• Weed gardens
• Wash steps, windows, railings, doors, etc
• Paint if needed
• Remove unnecessary clutter from garages

Move to the inside:

This is where the real cleaning must take place. In this market, you cannot afford to not clean and keep your house clean. This has to be a cleaning like never before. Buyers are expecting the home to sparkle. If you don't feel you can do it, hire a professional for this.

• Shampoo carpets
• Clean tubs, toilets and showers and hang fresh towels
• Oil squeaky doors
• Fix things like broken hinges and light switches

Ask your friends and neighbors

• How does the house smell?
• Would you buy this house?
• How much would you buy it for?
• Is the decor dated or up to date?

Update and Repair

• Kitchens and bathrooms give the most return from an updating
• Granite countertops are the way to go if possible
• Get rid of any dated appliances or bath fixtures - time to switch out that avacado fridge and pink toilet. You are competing with model homes!
• Finish any unfinished tasks or anything a buyer may ask for.
• Neutral paint colors and decor
