# 10 Real Estate Tips to Help Your Home Sell Fast

Last updated Jul 25, 2024

Share Post

How quickly you can sell your house can vary pretty dramatically from market to market. In strong seller’s markets, homes can be sold in a matter of days. Then, there are markets where it might takes months—or worse, years—to sell your home. Regardless of which market you’re in, there are a few ways you can help your home sell quicker. Below, we share real estate tips and home staging advice that can be used to help you sell your home faster.

## Hire the Right Real Estate Agent

Having a real estate professional on your side will who will do what it takes to get your home sold is crucial. Read their reviews, evaluate their listings, ask them questions about pricing and what buyers will like or dislike about your property, and be sure they’ll market your listing online. If they’re not going to invest time into getting your home sold, or if they don’t have good experience with homes like yours, then they’re not the realtor for you.

## Price Your Home Right from the Start

![Wooden block shaped like house with coins in background. Photo by Instagram user @coronadohome.com_maryjo_morgan](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/price-home-right-selling-quickly.jpg)

You’re going to see the [most activity within the first 30 days of listing](http://money.usnews.com/money/personal-finance/slideshows/10-tips-to-sell-your-home-fast?slide=2), so pricing appropriately is important when trying to sell a home in this window. If you go too high in the beginning, you’ll drive buyers away and end up having to “ [chase the market down](https://www.ericstewartgroup.com/what-are-the-6-risks-if-you-price-your-home-too-high/).” If you go too low, you miss out on recouping the costs you’ve invested in your home. Check your local market values with a real estate agent to see if your price accurately represents your home’s value for the current time.

## Declutter Your Home

[Reducing clutter in your home](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/home-organization/home-organization-tips/how-to-declutter-your-home/) is important because it’ll make your listing photos look drastically better, which can result in more home showings. It also impacts the way potential buyers experience your home when they do a walk-through. One of the most important rules when decluttering before showing a home? Don’t shove things into guest rooms, closets, basements, attics, or garages! Buyers will look at these flex rooms and storage spaces.

## Do a Deep Clean

![Clean, staged kitchen and breakfast nook. Photo by instagram user @newcheshirehome](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/deep-clean-selling-quickly.jpg)

Another must on your to-do list prior to selling your home is thoroughly clean. This includes the kitchen, bathrooms, all toilets and sinks, light fixtures, ceiling fans, baseboards, windows inside and outside, and all appliances. Check out this [deep cleaning checklist](http://www.designrefined.com/article_deep_cleaning_checklist.php) for a full list of areas to clean before your house goes on the market.

## Utilize Home Staging

When it comes to selling a home fast, [staging your home](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/moving/buying-selling-renting/stage-your-home/) makes a big difference. If your real estate agent doesn’t include this as part of their services, consider hiring a home staging professional. Not only do [staged homes sell faster](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/moving/buying-selling-renting/is-home-staging-worth-it/), but they often sell for more as well.

## Upgrade Your Curb Appeal

First impressions matter, and there are easy DIY ideas you can do to provide that strong first impression when buyers pull up to your home. Trying painting your front door, trim, and shutters. Make sure your yard looks great by pulling weeds, laying fresh mulch, trimming back plants, and mowing the lawn. [Upgrade your house numbers](https://www.hgtv.com/outdoors/landscaping-and-hardscaping/instant-curb-appeal-for-less-than-100-dollars-pictures) to help your home stand out.

## Paint Rooms Neutral Colors

_Photo via [@kristenfortier](https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsq0FjHlh-n/)_

Whether you have a single bold accent wall in your living room or a whole kids room painted with cute cartoons, you don’t want to risk your personal style clashing with a potential buyer’s as they’re viewing your home. Be sure to cover up any eccentric wall colors. The [best paint colors for selling your house](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/moving/buying-selling-renting/color-me-sold/) are typically neutral shades of white, gray, or beige because of their ability to make spaces look larger and reflect light.

## Make Simple Upgrades

![Modern kitchen with hanging light fixtures. Photo by Instagram user @kimberlykayinteriors](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/make-simple-upgrades-selling-quickly.jpg)

_Photo via [@kimberlykayinteriors](https://www.instagram.com/p/BrAiYMnlZji/)_

Small upgrades to your home might be enough to give it an updated feel that buyers will notice. Swap out old handles and knobs on doors and cabinets throughout your home with new hardware in hues like oil-rubbed bronze or brushed nickel. You can also do the same with light fixtures.

## Remodel Your Home

In truly bad markets, [remodeling](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/moving/buying-selling-renting/home-remodeling-ideas-best-ways-to-increase-home-value/) is an option to consider. Smart remodels can help you see better resale value and make your home more appealing to buyers who want newer features. [Kitchen remodels](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/moving/buying-selling-renting/ideas-upgrade-remodel-kitchen/), [bathroom renovations](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/moving/buying-selling-renting/bathroom-remodel-ideas-14-ways-to-upgrade-your-space/), and [finishing your basement](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/moving/buying-selling-renting/finish-your-basement-with-these-renovation-ideas/) are all solid opportunities for you to give your home a facelift and get your home sold faster.

## Look into Buyer Incentives

![Canoga Park, CA house. Photo by Instagram user @haroldtherealtor](https://www.extraspace.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/buyer-incentives-selling-quickly.jpg)

_Photo via [@haroldtherealtor](https://www.instagram.com/p/B1wvF0oASgJ/)_

There’s a broad range of incentives that you can offer potential homebuyers if you’re looking to stand apart and sell your home quickly, especially in tougher markets. Some ideas include buying down the interest rate, paying for additional closing costs, providing an upgrade allowance, or prepaying for home services like mowing and housekeeping.

If you plan to sell your home, you want to sell it fast. Use our ideas above in coordination with what makes sense for your specific market, and you’ll have a much better chance at selling quickly!
