Make Necessary Repairs

Make all needed repairs unless you want the house to be regarded as a fixer-upper. This does not refer to cosmetic updates, but to items in need of repair. Anything that is obviously broken gives potential buyers a reason to submit a lower offer.

Today buyers are better prepared than they ever have been. Over the past few years, especially in the Seattle real estate market, buyers have done their homework. Presenting your home in the best possible condition to buyers will ensure that you receive the highest and greatest numbers of offers to consider. Homes in need of obvious repairs, will lessen the likely-hood of selling your house for its best price.
