When you?re ready to put your
property on the market, you want to get the most qualified buyers to take
notice. This is especially the case if you have already purchased another
property or need to relocate within a short time span. Rather than spending
days bickering over a fair selling price or financing terms, you may want to
draw those who are ready to do business, so you can finalize the deal as soon
as possible. If that?s the case, here are some tips that can help to attract those
who are ready to sign on the dotted line.
1. Avoid contingency offers.
These buyers have a property of their own to sell, and may not even have any
firm purchase offers they are negotiating. If you sign a contract with this
type of buyer, the sale of your property might not be final until their
property sells. In effect, you are taking responsibility for the sale of two
properties, not just one. In some cases, a buyer may not be required to sell
his or her property first, but then may back out from buying your property if
they begin to worry about meeting two monthly mortgage payments. A contingency
offer may work well in some cases, but is usually not the best way to go if you
are in a hurry.
2. Be careful with first-time
homebuyers. Although many first time homebuyers often are ready to put together
a purchase deal for your property, some are ill equipped to carry out a speedy
purchase. They may have overlooked some of the usual purchase terms simply
because they are new to the process. Depending on the real estate agent who
represents them, or their advance preparation to buy a property, they may have
everything lined up and ready to go, including a review of their credit history
and a careful budget assessment to see what type of mortgage payment they can
afford.
3. Screen potential buyers. When
your agent hosts an open house, see if he or she can find out those who have
been pre-approved. Interested buyers can be encouraged to get pre-approved if
they are not already. Sorting ready from tentative buyers will let you focus on
those who are in a position to buy rather than merely being ready to start the
pre-approval process. Ideally, the buyers should know how much house they can
afford, what type of monthly payment will fit with their budget, and whether
their credit history will support the purchase of real estate at this point.
Taking steps like these can
prepare your property for a ready sale and reduce the risk of unexpected
delays.
