📝 5 Things I Wish I Knew Before Selling My Home! 🏡

Selling your home can be an emotional rollercoaster. If I could go back in time, these are the tips I’d tell myself:

1️⃣ Start Decluttering Early: Less is more! A tidy space helps buyers envision their future home. Begin with those closets and extra furniture before listing.

2️⃣ Curb Appeal is EVERYTHING: First impressions matter. I wish I had invested in some fresh paint and landscaping sooner—it made a world of difference.

3️⃣ Get a Pre-Listing Inspection: Knowing potential issues beforehand gives you the upper hand in negotiations and avoids surprises later on.

4️⃣ Price it Right from the Start: Overpricing can scare away buyers, while underpricing leaves money on the table. Do your homework or consult with a pro to find the sweet spot.

5️⃣ Be Ready for the Emotional Ride: It’s not just a transaction; it's saying goodbye to a place filled with memories. Prepare yourself for the process emotionally.

Thinking of selling? Let’s chat! I’ve been there and can guide you through the process! 😊

Here’s what you can do to prepare to buy a home so you can jump into real estate when you’re ready!

1. Increase your credit score: Your credit score is a big component of your eventual mortgage approval and interest rate. The higher, the better!

👉 Connect with a lender to work on a specific plan for your circumstances. (Ask me for recommendations!)

2. Build your cash savings: While you may need as little as 3.5% for a downpayment, there are other out-of-pocket costs associated with buying a home, such as inspections, appraisals, and closing costs.

👉 Try opening a HYSA (high yield savings account) to save money and take advantage of earning more interest to make your dollars go further! If you need a recommendation I can help!

3. Get educated about real estate and the homebuying process: Your agent will guide you every step of the way, but knowing more about the process will make you feel more at ease and confident as you buy a home.

🏡 Property Tip #1: Tenant Retention through Great Communication 🗣️

Effective communication is key to retaining happy tenants year after year. By fostering a relationship based on trust and open dialogue, you make it easier for tenants to report issues and address concerns promptly. When tenants feel heard and valued, they’re more likely to take good care of the property and renew their lease. Build a strong connection with your tenants and watch your retention rates soar! 🌟🔑
