✅ Tips for a quick and successful real estate transaction
1. Make small but visible improvements
You don't have to do major renovations, but some improvements can significantly increase the value of the property:
- Freshening with white or neutral paint
- Replacement of old luminaires
- Fixing leaks, mold, damaged tiles or doors
- Cleaned windows and shiny surfaces
📌 Tip: Buyers want to envision their future home - create a feeling of cleanliness and comfort.
2. Clean and prepare the space
✅ Remove personal belongings - photos, clothes, knick-knacks
✅ Arrange the cupboards and wardrobes
✅ Clean the bathroom and kitchen to a shine
✅ Move out unnecessary furniture to make the space look more spacious
📸 Tip: Prepare the property so that it looks good in photos - this is the first thing potential buyers will see online.
3. Create a good first impression
First impression sells!
Add:
- fresh flowers or green plants
- decorative pillows and textiles
- stylishly arranged dining table
- clean scent or neutral freshener
📸 4. Invest in a professional photo shoot
Ads with quality photos receive over 50% more views.
- Use natural light
- Capture all rooms including balcony, entrance and view
- Consider a short video or 360° virtual tour
📌 Tip: Ask for the real estate agency take professional photos of the home - it's in their best interest and yours.
📜 5. Prepare the necessary documents in advance
Gathering documents at the last minute delays transactions. Make sure you have:
- Notarial deed
- Sketch and scheme from the cadastre
- Tax assessment
- Certificate of no encumbrances
- If there are co-owners - notarized consents
📌 Tip: Prepare everything even before you place the ad.
💰 6. Determine market price with professional help
Don't bid too high just because "that's how other properties are listed".
- Make an analysis of the area
- Compare to actual sold properties, not just published listings
- Consult a broker
📉 Tip: An inflated price scares off buyers, and you may have to mark down much more than you actually have to later.
🧠 7. Choose a suitable real estate agency
A good broker doesn't just sell - him:
- analyse the market
- advises you on how to present the property
- negotiates for you
- filters out frivolous buyers
📌 Tip: Choose an agencywhich offers marketing, professional photography and active advertising, one with a good reputation, real reviews and professional attitude - it makes a huge difference.
🧾 8. Be ready for negotiations
Buyers often offer a lower price. Prepare yourself:
- to have a psychological discount limit
- react calmly
- consider an offer in the context of market conditions
✅ Conclusion: preparation leads to a successful sale
If you want to sell your property quickly and profitably in 2025., approach strategically: refresh, clean, prepare documents and work with professionals. This will save you time, nerves and increase your bottom line.
