I watched this one and the one on staging. I’m a Realtor in California and your advice is spot on for our market too. Pricing to sell now is most quoted number 1. I am impressed that your number 2 is smell. I agree. Nothing smells better and more inviting than Clean. That goes for the daily shower stall too. No one feels welcome in a moist environment scented with someone else’s personal hygiene products. Nobody can live long like this. That drives home the need to get that price right. Wishing you great success on youtube.
Where in California?! I was born and raised in Orange County until my early twenties and my dad was a realtor there for almost 40 years. Thank you for kind words, I really appreciate it ☺.
Home sellers should declutter all the closets, cabinets garages, attics and all the nick knacks on the tables. Pack them up and put them in storage. A clean and well-maintained home will always sell first.
I love this but ugggh I have done all of these things and have a wonderful agent. We’re hitting our 30 day mark though. Do I think it’s overpriced? Yes, but I am not in charge of that. my husband fought the price reduction I finally got him to agree too. we had it priced below its market value already. it’s in a city where it’s tricky between maintained Victorians like ours, overpriced not maintained or sitting on the highway Victorians making people leery of ours, or homes price at or below ours but new builds with all the nice things. lol. Selling is scary. But I am glad to see that I’m doing all the things you’re I’ve suggested. So I’m hopeful someone will be a perfect match to take over this home.
Keep your hopes up! Thirty days is not super long in this current market, I promise! Especially if you have a unique property, like it sounds that you do. Selling a home seems to hit all the nerves for most people, so you're not alone in that feeling. Keep the home looking good, listen to any feedback you receive, and maybe engage in other creative ways to market. One thing that can be helpful is holding a broker's open and invite other agents to walk through to give their opinion of price and condition, and offer any other suggestions they might have to appeal to a broader pool of buyers. But in the end, sometimes it just takes time and patience 🥰
@@movingtooklahomacity thank you. I talked with our agent and we did the brokers open a couple of days ago. Apparently it’s just super stagnant and our feedback was be patient, we’re doing everything right the home is stunning. Only downside is laundry is in the basement and we started priced too high. ( that’s 100% my hubby refusing to budge on what he wanted ) We’re waiting on an estimate for adding hookups on the main floor and well, it’s priced below now but it took a bit to get my husband to not expect half a mil for a house we paid under 200k for last decade. lol Im gonna start running around wearing a tshirt that says “make me an offer” with a pic of my house on it because I’m ready to beg. I know btw that our agent is doing everything possible too. It’s definitely not her. It’s just a place people need to get inside. You gotta really want a Victorian even a well maintained one that’s been updated consistently like ours. Because our competition here is literally the new construction builds. So I get it.
Im getting ready to repaint all the walls in my house to get it ready to sell. Should I keep them white or choose a light shade of a color like grey, blue, or beige?
I would keep them white! It photographs well, and most buyers won't complain about fresh white walls. If you paint the walls a shade the buyer happens to not like, then they'll often factor the repaint cost in, which can be a couple thousand or more depending on the size of the home and a lot of buyers don't want to have trouble with that expense when they first move in. I wish you the best!

Yes! Clutter makes a home look small!
