Selling your home is not always an easy task, and selling your home in winter is even harder. Typically, the spring time is the best time to sell your home. This well known fact affects the whole home market. Even Lafayette movers offer better prices to attract customers on the winter, because not many people are buying.
However, we believe you can sell your Lafayette home in the winter with a few tips to take advantage of the market.
- Dress the outside in warm, spring colors.
Buyers are looking for that special home quality. Whether you call it coziness or call it warmth, you have to try and mimic those specific feelings in the cold winter months. Our Lafayette movers have been in the business long enough to know a few tricks:
– Use pictures from spring when posting the house online.
– Sweep off any and all snow as often as possible, especially before the buyers arrive.
– Use outside lighting to make your home stand out.
- Up the inside coziness factor.
You are not out of the woods yet. It is well known that a buyer will know if they want a house within the first 60 seconds. So once they have entered your home, you have 60 seconds to grab them. Here are a few more tips from our Lafayette movers:
– Light the house up like it is the holiday season.
– Keep it nice and warm inside; warm enough that you have to take their coats.
– Have warm snack available. Hot cocoa is a big plus; whatever makes the buyer feel at home.
