5 Tips to Selling Your Property

admin — Mon, 22 Apr 2013 23:54:55 +0000

Making the decision to sell a property can often be a difficult one. It’s hard to part with a house or land that you’ve lived in for years. But once the decision has been made, most people want to get their property sold as soon as possible. If this is your first time selling a property, these are 5 of the top things you should keep in mind to get it sold as quickly and smoothly as possible.

First Impressions
When putting your property on the market make sure that you have everything in place to impress buyers. At first glance potential buyers should not be able to notice anything out of place or looking unkempt. Often times an owner or agent will put a for sale sign on the property before making sure that the property is ready.
Price it Right
Make sure that you have your price in line with what comparable properties are selling for. Often times sellers, especially those that feel an emotional attachment to a property, expect too much and agents overextend a property’s value.
Hire an Agent
It is ok to talk to more than one real estate agent before listing your acreage or home for sale. Ask lots of questions and find out what experience they have in selling other properties that are similar to yours. Also find out their experience in advertising. If this is their first venture in your property’s market – be careful.
Declutter and Fix the Small Things
If you have a leaking sink or a door that needs replacing, carpet stains, or drywall problems get them fixed. It is best to have them repaired before even listing the property or allowing potential buyers to look. These small cosmetic items can be hard for a buyer to get over.
Keep it Neutral
If you are selling a home and need to repaint or touch up walls make sure that you keep the colors neutral. If you have a recreational property don’t go overboard on food plots, fire rings, or landscaping. Simply cleaning it up will make it look attractive.

The little things that will make your property more attractive and sellable are easy to overlook. By following these 5 simple steps you can take a lot of the stress out of having a property that is more attractive to potential buyers.

5 Tips for buying lake property!

admin — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 02:56:05 +0000

Do you love being on the water? How about boating and fishing? If you are like me I have always dreamed of having a lake property. As a full time resident at Lake Sundown I am living my dream. Here are 5 tips for buying a lake property. Read on to learn more and then start your lake property search.

How long has this property been listed?
This question can sometimes be one that agents like to avoid. Find out what comparable lots or lake homes have sold for in the past one to two years. A competent lake real estate agent should be able to provide you this data with little or no trouble.
Why are the owners selling?
Seller agents are able to answer this question if they are given the permission to do so. You may not gain any knowledge by asking this question or you may gain some immediate insight on the sellers and/or the property that they are selling. It never hurts to ask?
Are there any hidden fees associated with the lake?
Most Iowa lakes have an owners association in place and annual or monthly fees. Every lake is a little different on what is free and what you have to pay for. Be sure to find out if the fees quoted include everything that you are seeing.
What are the Lake’s setbacks?
Some lakes offer their own standard set of setbacks. Make sure that there is something in writing when it comes to setbacks from the water. A buffer strip from the water can make for an eco-friendly lake.
Fishing?
If the lake is considered private, the lake owners are responsible for stocking the lake and providing an adequate fish population. Make sure that a fish study can be provided on the lake similar to what the Iowa DNR provides on public lakes.
