Selling a home is a process that can take months or longer. To get the best deal you can, make your home as appealing as possible. Many factors affect the number of offers you'll receive, from market conditions to how you arrange your home’s storage spaces. Here's what you need to know to get the best response.

How to Sell Your Home Quickly

1. Dress Up the House

Potential buyers will want to look through the home, including the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, and closets. Decluttering the house is a smart way to keep it presentable. The less of your belongings in the home, the cleaner it will stay. Go room by room and trash or donate items you don't need. If there are items you don't use often but want to keep, move them to a storage unit.

Finally, go through your closets and garage and remove about half of your belongings. This will make the storage space look bigger, which is important to buyers.

2. Create Strategic Ads

Once you have your house looking its best, you should take appealing photos of the interior. A professional photographer will use the most flattering angles and lighting to make your house look inviting, spacious, and attractive. After you have photos, work with a real estate agent to figure out a price that makes sense for the current market in your area and come up with attention-getting descriptions for your listing.

3. Be Flexible About Showings

Factors that have nothing to do with the house itself can affect buyers' impressions. For example, if they have to schedule a showing at an inconvenient time or the home is cluttered when they arrive, they may be less likely to put in an offer. Ideally, you should always be ready to show the home with ten- to fifteen-minutes' notice. Keep things tidy, and be willing to bend your schedule to accommodate a visit.
