Occasionally, because Bedico Creek Preserve is such a popular neighborhood on the northshore of Lake Pontchartrain in New Orleans, Louisiana, we will have newspaper, magazine, and online articles and blogs written about our master-planned community. We feature these articles in our Press Room area. Also, we sometimes create press releases for special news and events that are happening at Bedico Creek Preserve. You can find all of this information, plus make media inquiries all right here in our Press Room.

Several Tips To Follow When Selling a House in 2021

Both selling and buying a home can be very exciting. When it comes to the sale of your home, it can be bitter-sweet. Leaving a home behind where there are sentimental attachments can be difficult. An emotional mindset might hinder the sale of your home. Here are some tips to follow that will help navigate you through the process and hinder costly mistakes.

1. Price Your Home Right

Low inventory usually means higher pricing, but that is not always the case when it comes to a listing price. A buyer can only purchase a home based on the fair market value when it comes to obtaining a mortgage. In a nutshell, the bank will only lend what the home is worth. During the mortgage process, the lender will require an appraisal from a professional appraiser who will determine the fair market value. It is always best to stick with a Realtor who can help you price your home right.

2. Keep Your Emotions in Check

Most homeowners live in the house for quite a long period of time. During this time, they will create a lot of memories and these memories will be attached to their house.  According to the National Association of Realtors, current homeowners lives in their home for an average of ten years. It can be hard for a homeowner to separate the sentimental value of a home from fair market value. Using a Realtor can help you with the process and can negotiate without emotional attachment.

3. Stage Your Home Properly

The first impression goes a long way when a potential buyer enters a home.  A buyer will not be impressed with all of your sentimental nick-nacks or special wallpaper hung in the dining room.  A home needs to be staged with a buyer in mind.  The buyer needs to be able to come into the space and envision it as their own. A Realtor can help you stage your home before it is listed.

If you are considering selling your current home, now is a great time.  Even though it is a seller’s market, it is a good idea to use a real estate professional.  A local Realtor can help you sell your home for the right price.
