One thing your real estate agent might tell you is that you need to set your home apart from others if you want to sell it quickly. How do you do this, you might wonder? There are many ways you can accomplish this, but there are three proven methods that tend to work well.

1. Get a Pre-Listing Home Inspection and Make the Necessary Repairs

Have you ever heard of getting a home inspection? Most people understand what a home inspection is, but many do not know what a pre-listing home inspection is. A pre-listing home inspection is something you order and pay for before you list your house. It provides the same details as a traditional home inspection, but you complete it before listing the house instead of after a buyer puts in an offer. The goal of a pre-listing home inspection is to solve all the issues with a house before listing it. If you can do this, you can present a problem-free home. A problem-free home may attract more buyers, and it may help you sell faster.

2. Offer a Home Warranty

Second, you should consider offering a home warranty to the buyer. You can even include this feature in your home listing to announce that it comes with a one-year warranty. When buyers see this, they may be more inclined to view your house instead of others. Buyers prefer getting homes with warranties because a warranty reduces their risks when buying a property. A home warranty provides a way to get discounted repairs on all the systems in the home, and buyers often ask for home warranties for this purpose. If you advertise that you will include one with your sale, more people might want to see your house.

3. Set a Realistic Asking Price for the Property

The third thing you must do is set a realistic asking price for the property. To do this, ask your real estate agent about your home's value. The agent will tell you how much it is worth, and this information can help you set an asking price that is fair and just below your competition's prices.

Choosing to do these three things may help you find a buyer for your home faster. If you have questions about this or other issues related to selling a house, talk to a real estate agent today to learn more about the process.
