In December, home sales reached an 8-month high, recovering from the losses of last summer.  Market momentum is positive across Wisconsin, especially the Lake Geneva real estate market , but that doesn’t mean every home is selling quickly — only some of them are.

So, if you’re a home seller and want (or need) to get your home sold quickly, take a listen to this 3-minute interview from NBC’s The Today Show.  It’s loaded with practical sales advice for sellers.

As examples:

• How to price your home relative to comparable homes for sale
• Using home inspections to keep your contract on-track for closing
• How much should be spent on your “home photos” that are shown online

The interview also covers about the 3 key places of a home on which to spend money — the kitchen, the living area, and the front facade.  And for good reason — they’re emotional hooks for buyers that help sell homes.

In any market, selling a home can be a challenge.  It can be easier by applying common sense and consulting with one of the talented Lake Geneva real estate agents for specific advice.
