Step 5 to Selling a House in Cincinnati : Pack Up and Move

Moving to a new home is exciting but it is also stressful, but there are things you can do to make it go more smoothly.

You can choose to move yourself or hire a professional moving company. The Lowry Team can provide you with a list of our preferred vendors who can take some of the weight off your shoulders.

First and foremost, be prepared with all of the necessary materials for packing. Items that you will need are lots of boxes, packing tape, and plenty of material for wrapping breakable items. If you need boxes, try asking at some local retail stores if they have any empty boxes you can have. Often, they have tons of boxes that they are more than happy to give you.

Don’t wait until the last minute. Pack one room at a time and set a goal of packing a couple of boxes a day. As you pack each room sort through items that you may want to donate or sell.

Be sure to clearly mark each box once it is packed. Make sure to notate not only what’s in the box, but what room it goes in. Also, don’t forget to mark any breakables as “fragile” so that the person carrying the box later knows to be extra careful.

When moving, some people choose to rent a truck. Shop around carefully when picking a company to rent a moving truck from. Compare mileage rates and costs of moving on different days of the week. Instead of a moving truck, some people will have a portable container brought to their house. Once all of your house is packed up and placed inside, the company will move the container to your new home. No matter what you choose to do, make sure you plan ahead. If you wait too long to reserve a truck, you may be out of luck.

5 Hidden Reasons Your House Isn’t Selling (Or Didn’t Sell)

January 27, 2016 by Eric Lowry

5 Reasons Your House Isn’t Selling (Or Didn’t Sell)

Is your home listed for sale, but not getting any offers? Your problem could be any of these reasons your house isn’t selling.

It’s Overpriced – In the current market, where inventory is so low and buyer demand is high, homes are selling very quickly. If your home isn’t selling you might want to reconsider your asking price. The number one reasons homes don’t sell is because they are overpriced.

It’s Outdated – If your home is terribly outdated, that can be a major turn off to home buyers. For the most part, buyers want a home that is move-in ready. If all they notice are your kitchen and bathrooms from the 80’s and your old carpet, they’re not going to be impressed.

Bad Decor – Buyers want to see your home as a blank canvas. They don’t want to see all your personal knick knacks and photos all over the place, and they don’t want your blue or red walls. Depersonalize and declutter, and then neutralize all the paint colors in your home. If buyers can’t see themselves in your home, they will turn right around and leave.

Curb Appeal – You only get one chance to make a first impression so work on that curb appeal! Make sure your bushes are trimmed, your grass is cut and edged, your exterior paint is in good condition, etc.

You’re Not Using a Realtor – Data from a recent NAR study shows that less than 10% of For Sale By Owner’s (FSBO’s) actually sell. Approximately 90% of buyers are using a Realtor to find a home, and even more are finding that home on the internet. However, when you FSBO your home, your home listing does not come up in those buyers’ MLS searches. You are limiting your potential exposure to a very, very small percentage of buyers.
