Selling a home with acreage is different from marketing a typical house. You must find a particular type of buyer, which will limit your pool of prospective clients. The real estate agents at Gilbert Realty in Mountain Home, AR, have experience selling lakefront properties and other homes on large lots, so they understand the extra considerations involved.

3 Tips for Selling a Home With Acreage

Know Your Buyer

This is the strategy for selling any house or property. You need to know who would be interested in purchasing a home with acreage and why. Your house and land might be right for someone who wants the solitude of a mountain home or needs pasture space for horses or livestock. Your target market will determine how your real estate agent advertises the property.

Prepare the Property

Just as you stage a house by eliminating clutter, you must clean up your landscaping before listing a home with acreage. Remove garbage and debris, cut down dead trees in wooded areas, and trim grass in open fields — the cost of the work will pay off when the property sells. Arrange a land survey and mark the boundaries of your property clearly so visitors can appreciate the size of the lot.

Choose a Specialized Agent

The right listing agent will provide valuable advice on marketing your home. Choose one who has experience not only in your local area but with selling homes on large lots. They will not only understand your property’s advantages and how to promote them but be familiar with the buyers you’ll target.
