Step 4 to Selling a House in Cincinnati : Negotiate an Offer

It is extremely important to have an experienced, professional real estate agent do the negotiating for you when selling your house.

Eric Lowry, CEO and Listing Specialist for The Lowry Team, has over 16 years experience negotiating home sales in the Cincinnati area, and his listings sell for around 1% more than the market average – that could mean thousands of dollars more in your pocket.

With current market conditions, homes are selling pretty close to list price. However, there may be times when you will receive a completely low ball offer. Try not to take it personally; it’s just business. Your real estate agent will make sure that the buyer is preapproved for a loan and keep negotiating the offer for you.

Depending on market conditions, it may be important to try to keep negotiations going. The more time and money spent, the more the buyers will feel invested in reaching an agreement with you and buying your house.

It’s important to keep in mind that there is more to the negotiation process than just agreeing upon a price. You will also be negotiating occupancy and the closing date. Also, closing costs, repairs made to the home, and personal property are items that can make or break a deal. In the end, sometimes a small concession is all that is needed to agree upon a final purchase contract.

Step 3 to Selling a House in Cincinnati : Stage Your Home

Preparing your home for sale properly can net you considerably more money at closing. Some rooms in your home are more important than others in the preparation process and some home improvements are a much better investment as you prepare to sell your home. Don’t spend money unnecessarily, contact Eric Lowry, CEO and Listing Specialist for The Lowry Team today to arrange a consultation. In the meantime, here are some general steps that you could start implementing right now.

The first step in staging your home is to maximize the curb appeal. Make sure to trim the bushes and keep the lawn neatly mowed. The curb appeal of your home will provide the first impression to potential buyers. Make it a good one!

Next, you will want to remove any clutter from your house. Start packing up anything you are not currently using. You are going to have to pack it up eventually anyway, so why not get started. Your house will appear larger, neater, and more organized.

If you have transformed one (or more) of your bedrooms into something other than a bedroom, such as a sewing room or exercise room, change it back. If you are listing your house as a three bedroom, you want the home buyer to be able to easily visualize the three bedrooms.

Clean up and organize the counters in the bathrooms and kitchen. They should appear, neat, clean and sparkly! Put items that are generally sitting out on the counter tops away out of sight.

After all of the steps are completed, do one last final clean up. Deep clean your house from top to bottom; yes, even the windows! Repair any nicks to the walls and cover them with a fresh coat of neutral paint.

Lastly, add a pop of color. This could be some colorful towels in the half bath or fresh flowers in a vase in the entrance way. Add color outside by planting some annuals. Place a new welcome mat by the front door or add a splash of color with a pillows on a chair.

Houses that are properly staged sell faster and for more money than homes that are not. Contact Eric Lowry, CEO and Listing Specialist for The Lowry Team, to set up a free consultation. Call or text 513-368-3751

Step 3 to Selling a House in Cincinnati : Price It Right

Keller Williams research shows that a house priced right at market value sold in just half the time compared to homes priced above market value. In addition, homes priced at market value ended up selling for almost $4,000 more on average.

One of the most important steps in selling your home is determining what price to list it for. Eric Lowry, CEO and Listing Specialist for The Lowry Team, will perform a Comparable Market Analysis (CMA) for you, which takes into account recent sales of similar homes in the same market area and current market trends. This will help educate and assist you as you decide what price you will put your house on the market for. Eric Lowry says, “Houses that are priced accurately and are in good condition sell very quickly in today’s market.”
