Preparing your home for sale is a choice. A decision to be proactive or reactive. An opportunity to decide the 'needs' and 'musts' before you put a for sale sign in the yard. Chicago home sellers sit on the market longer than necessary every day because buyers do not want to deal with the same problems sellers are avoiding. Be proactive and put yourself in the driver's seat of negotiations. Selling a house smart is your goal.

I'm going to show you what's wrong and why you see it. But look, what is this? If I'm a buyer and I'm walking through, I'm not just wondering what this is. I'm wondering what caused it. Why is it there? What am I going to have to deal with as an owner? I don't want to deal with problems. No one wants to buy problems. No one wants to inherit problems. You speak with kids that inherit their properties.
00:00:43.770
They sell them for next to nothing because it's like four siblings and they're each taking a twenty thousand dollar reduction, but they're really taking an eighty thousand dollar hit on the property. They don't care. They just want to cash out. This is the same thing when you're buying this house. I'm like, look at all these problems. I mean, the price is going to be really compelling and that's my property sit on the market. And that's why you hire more than one broker sometimes because the first broker told you all these things and you don't want to hear it.
00:01:06.750
You didn't want to do it, and the house didn't sell. And now you're hiring. Broker number two brokers telling you the same things on. So skylights are notorious for leaking, I don't know if there was a leak here, I know nothing about what we're seeing. But look, you see this cracking.
00:01:26.060
What's going to make someone think there's something wrong with it? They're going to want to investigate it further. They're going to be more reluctant to purchase the home because that crack is there. Come over here. This is the scariest thing here altogether. You see this? There is serious water damage happening there. Serious water, damaging damage happening there.
00:01:46.430
You can see it everywhere. Putting this on the market this way and just going to scare the crap out of me. Even if I have the best location, even if I have this great floor plan, I'm going to be reluctant because I see this, too.
00:01:59.600
Why is this happening?
00:02:01.850
Look, I mean, you can't feel what I can feel, but what I feel tells me that's not that's not the best thing to buy into right now, because it's going to require work.
00:02:13.250
It's going to require me to take care of those problems. I'd rather you be proactive about what needs to be done with the property so clients aren't reactive when they actually want to buy it, because it's going to cost you more. In the end, you have to put the money up front in order to sell the property. So you're not taking the hit on the end. If you don't care about those things, great. You have the money to not worry about it.
00:02:33.350
I love that it's my favorite client. Well, we'll just offload it very quickly. But if you want to get top dollar, if you want to get the best price possible for your home, which is really what I want, because I want that stat right. I want to brag to every agent, to every other seller. We've got top dollar, highest price per square foot in the entire neighborhood.
00:04:13.690
Don't put something on the market that isn't ready to be sold or you have to price it. So it's compelling enough for someone to come here and do their own thing. Just know you have those two options. Put money in, make more money, put no money in, make less money. It's totally up to you. Timing often dictates it as well. But if you have the time, that's why you want to hire us, because we'll use our resources, our contacts, our time to not just be your realtor, but your adviser and the entire home sale process.
