If you’re selling a home for the first time, it’s quite different than what you experienced as a first-time buyer. This time you’re in control of the process. You call the shots on prepping your home for sale, deciding on a listing price, and accepting or rejecting offers. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Northville and Novi neighborhoods and we have a few tips to make this experience go a little smoother. First, hire an experienced real estate agent. A professional agent can help you navigate through this selling proess. Then detach yourself from the process. You’ve made memories to last a lifetime in your first home, and saying goodbye is hard. But be careful not to let your emotional attachment get in the way of making sound decisions, particularly when it comes to staging and pricing your home. Try to see your home as a potential buyer would. Pretend you’re a potential buyer and walk through your home. Make a list of what you like about each room – and the things you’d change.

Some sellers might think that they can overprice their home and get top dollar. In reality, if you price it competitively, you’ll create a flurry of activity and possibly get in a situation where multiple offers are rolling in. Overpricing at the start hurts your chances of getting a quick sale, especially if numerous price reductions are needed.
