Sometimes the process just involves cleaning and de-cluttering your home to get it ready for sale, while other times we will need to get contractors involved (we have a lot of experience in this area) to change carpet or paint the home so that the colors are ready for the new buyer.

How to sell your house the first day it hits the market

Selling a house can be a painless process if you follow the advice of someone who has sold hundreds of homes. And at this point, I've sold so many homes that I usually know what the pain points are going to be before putting a home on the market.
Let me jump in here and say that obviously whether your home sells on the first day, or quickly (which is probably a better expectation) has a lot to do with market conditions. If there is a lot of unsold inventory on the market, or your home is uniquely difficult to sell (think 1800's farmhouse or a condo that will only appeal to a select demographic) then taking a few months to sell should be expected. I can layout better expectations after viewing your home and reviewing your specific market.

But most forget about one crucial step: staging. Properly staging your home is one of the best ways to make buyers fall in love with your home and showing them all of the possibilities space offers.
