The deciding factors that lead to a decision to sell a real estate property may differ greatly, but it is sure that once the decision is made, selling the property should happen relatively fast.
Statistics clearly show that the sale process of a home is usually carried out within 45-50 days. And this is provided that all parameters of the realestate are optimal – the location is sought, the property is in good condition, well located in the market pricewise, and all documents have already been issued and clarified, or at least there are no unforeseen details to slow down the process.
In some cases, however, the time can vary considerably, and often with poor marketing and advertising, can take months or even years.
Experts from the real estate listings website for Ruse Realistimo share tips for faster sale of real estate properties, which are extremely easy to act upon:
Promotion and advertising of a residential property listing
Promoting the property is extremely important to speed up the sale process. The more people see your listing, the greater the chance to sell the property. You can decide to use the services of a real estate agency, and they will take over the advertising of your property through established marketing channels, for a pre-agreed percentage of the sale price. Another option is to list the property yourself.
The site for free real estate listings in Ruse Realistimo.com gives you the opportunity to publish your property, and the massive advertising campaigns that we organise will ensure that it will be seen by many potential buyers. But this is only the first step. Here’s what you need to pay attention to when publishing a new property to speed up the sale process:
The photos
Photos are the most important part when advertising an apartment or a house. This will be the main reason for in-home visits from potential buyers and thus photos require special attention.
We recommend pre-cleaning the premises, turning on all light sources, as well as opening the curtains. Photos should be taken from the corner of the room to capture the whole room. If possible, use the phone’s wide-angle camera. Photos taken in HDR mode are also a good idea.
When publishing the listing, we recommend adding more than 10 photos so that potential buyers can get a better idea of the location of the home. If you offer a one-bedroom apartment for sale in Ruse, for example, it is a good idea to photograph both rooms, as well as the bathroom, toilet, kitchen, corridor and all additional rooms.
An important point is which photo you will choose as the main one, it is the first photo that potential buyers will see. It is advisable to choose a photo of the living room, or a photo of the most luxurious part of the home.
The description of the listing
When publishing a listing for an apartment, it is important to describe in great detail not only the condition of the apartment itself, but also the general condition of the building in which it is located, the condition of the entrance and parking around the building. Information about the infrastructure of the neighborhood – kindergartens, schools, recreation areas, public transport stops, supermarkets and non-stop shops would also be very useful.
When selling a house, it is important to photograph the garden and the exterior of the house. It is a good idea to choose a sunny day for photos, as well as to prepare and clean the yard in advance. Pay attention to the garden – a large percentage of potential buyers have decided to buy a house, just because of it.
Additional promotion of the listing
After publishing your real-estate listing, don’t forget to share it on social networks. This will help your offer to reach more people. Your social circle of people will keep in mind that you are selling a property and you can be sure that they will contact you if they or their acquaintances are looking for a real estate similar to the one you are offering. This will further speed up the sales process.
