What is important to do before selling an apartment? Barak Dvash, founder of Citizen Agency, with critical tips for a successful sale in the local real estate market.
Many homeowners ask me how to sell their home quickly and for a good price. Especially for you, I share important tips that will help you improve your chances of a quick deal.
The first impression is critical. An apartment that feels well-maintained and pleasant will receive more attention. Therefore, before putting the property up for sale, it is important to fix small faults: leaking faucets, broken handles, peeling walls, and more. A buyer who identifies faults may fear additional costs and look for another property.
Beyond that, I recommend a thorough cleaning and making sure the house smells nice. Proper furniture arrangement can also open up the space and highlight the advantages of the property. Even fresh flowers on the table can make a difference.
Another important tip: Showcase the property with professional photos. Good, high-quality photos will make the apartment stand out on websites and ads. This type of move will increase the number of inquiries. In addition, it is worth setting a realistic price. Correct pricing from the beginning saves valuable time and prevents procrastination.
Personally, I recommend working with a professional and qualified broker, who knows how to market the property correctly. And not only that, but also how to locate potential buyers and deal with objections. Furthermore, a broker accompanies the apartment owners throughout the entire process. Which saves unnecessary hassle and increases the chances of closing at a good price. In the Israeli real estate market, where competition is high and buyers are picky, every small detail makes a big difference. With proper preparation and professional guidance, the sales process can be short, efficient, and profitable.
