How to sell
your home for the price you want, in record time!
Our
expertise is in helping you set the stage and making it easy for
prospective buyers to imagine themselves happily living in your
home.
And it should happen quickly. Research shows that buyers make the
real decision about a house purchase in the first eleven seconds of
seeing it.
It is our intention at BJ*ADAMS AND COMPANY to secure the
absolute best market price for your home, in the shortest time, with
the least hassles.
Decades of
combined real estate experience have taught us that a few easy but
critical steps will make your home sell at a higher price—from 5 to
15 percent or more—and in a shorter time.
Here are some low-cost, high-return upgrades to improve the
perceived value of your house or condominium:

 Eliminate clutter
Visually expand the rooms. Storing half your clothes will
make closets look twice as big. Get rid of excess or
worn-out furniture.
Increase the buyer's comfort
Eliminate strong
personal statements
If the buyer senses this property still belongs to you, it
can give them "territorial anxiety," and they'll feel it
will never belong to them. Put away your toy soldier
collection. Reduce family photos to a treasured few. Your
master suite and kitchen should look like a model home.
Clean up
Of this we're certain: a clean house sells more quickly and
for more money than a dirty one. Get your house squeaky
clean. If you do nothing else, do this!
Fix up
The house should appear to be in excellent condition and in
perfect working order. Even your house number should be new
and bright. Pay special attention to the kitchen and master
bath. These rooms are always at the top of a buyer's list.
Repair
A motivated buyer will probably bring in a professional
house inspector. Make sure nothing is there to be found.
Deferred maintenance makes buyers crazy.
Establish a focal point
In each room, give the buyer something to remember: shiny
brass andirons by the fireplace, a charming area rug, red
geraniums in the kitchen window sill.
Use light to your advantage
Wash all the windows and let in as much natural light as
possible. Flick on all the lights. This is no time to
conserve energy or to be worrying about the sun fading your
furniture.
Consider sound
Quiet is the best policy. It suggests privacy and serenity.
Foster a welcoming aroma
Eliminate offensive odors from pets, smoke or cooking. We
can help you create that "new house smell" with common
materials and products. And don't forget fresh air and
sunlight.
