How to facilitate your own fast home sale

By now, you may be well aware of the advantages of an MPG fast home sale, the benefits of which include a guaranteed cash offer, no commission or agents’ fees, no valuation fees and free legal fees. If you’re in a tight spot, selling to MPG Investments just makes sense. The main attraction of a fast home sale to MPG is its speed – within just 7 days, you’ll have the cash in your hand and the freedom to solve your financial woes.

However, if you’re wanting a fast home sale but you’d prefer to sell your property through an agent or FSBO (For Sale By Owner), there are a number of factors that may increase your chances of selling quickly on the open market. After all, homes can take at least 3 to 4 months to sell on the market – or up to a year. Follow the tips below to facilitate a fast home sale for your property.

Fast home sale tips for UK homeowners

Now that you’ve decided to sell your house through an estate agent or FSBO, you’ll need to ensure that the property is attractive to potential buyers. Houses are fairly difficult to sell at the best of times; hence, it is vital to ensure that your property is in good condition before marketing it to potential buyers.

Generally, home renovations are drawn out and expensive, and for individuals who have little cash and time to spare, they’re hardly an option. However, there are easy, relatively cheap ways to improve the appearance of your home before you – or your estate agent – opens its front door to potential purchasers. To improve your chances of securing a fast home sale, consider the following tips:

• First and foremost, have your home valued before putting it on the market, and ensure that you calculate a realistic asking price for the property. An overpriced home is unlikely to garner much attention, and a house that is constantly reduced in price (as a result of its initial price being inflated) may only rouse suspicion among potential buyers. This will hardly encourage a fast home sale!
• Focus on the rooms that buyers are likely to scrutinise – usually the bathroom(s) and kitchen. These areas should be pristine, so ensure that they are scrubbed down and sparkling before every house viewing. Place fresh soap and towels in the bathroom, and colourful fruit in the kitchen.
• Ensure that house viewers are greeted by a fresh, fragrant aroma when they enter your home. The smell of baked bread is an old, clichéd favourite – opt instead for oil burners or aromatic candles placed in the entrance hall, living room or bedrooms. A beautifully scented house may be just what it takes to seal the deal on that fast home sale!
• Consider your home’s unique selling point – every house has one. Highlight this aspect, as well as your home’s most visited areas, with pleasing décor and special touches to the interior. This will enable you, or your agent, to focus on a specific part of your home in order to boost interest in the property.
• Once your property is in the hands of estate agents or has been advertised on the open market, ensure that your home is always ready for a showing. Agents or potential buyers may pop round at any time for a quick viewing. Hence, for the purposes of a fast home sale, it is important to keep your home neat and tidy at all times.

By following these steps, you may be able to reduce the time it takes to sell your home on the open market, either through an estate agent or FSBO. Bear in mind that if you haven’t received an offer within 30 days, it may be worth lowering the asking price.
