There was a point last year (and even during the first part of 2022) where all you had to do to sell a home quickly was get a listing up. For months, the housing market lacked inventory in a serious way, and that led to a period of homes flying off the market within days (and sometimes hours) of being put up for sale.
These days, the real estate market has shifted. Buyer demand is still strong, and inventory is still limited. But we’re not seeing the same soaring demand sellers were able to capitalize on last summer or earlier this year. As such, if you’re looking to sell a home quickly, it will require some strategy on your part. Thankfully, financial expert Dave Ramsey has these effective tips for moving your home off the market ASAP.
1. Choose the right real estate agent
A real estate agent can help you price your home strategically and present your home in the best light for buyers. And if you get multiple offers, your agent can help you assess them and decide which one to take (for example, an all-cash offer versus a buyer who will need a mortgage).
It pays to interview a few agents before signing a contract. Better yet, ask for recommendations from people you know who recently had a good experience.
