Sell My Jupiter Home
Sell My Jupiter Home
You want to sell my Jupiter home and it has been years since you last sold a home. What’s the process? How much does it cost? How do I find the best Jupiter realtor? All good questions. Well first let me answer a few important questions.
Before you even pick a realtor take a look and see what homes have sold for in your neighborhood, how many homes are for sale now. How is the general market for your type of home? Maybe Jupiter Fl single family homes are selling well but condos are slow in selling. Be an educated seller.
What are the costs to sell my Jupiter Home? Florida bears most of the costs on the seller which include some of the fees below.
Title Insurance – Runs about .5% of sales price
Doc Stamps – .70 cents per hundred dollars
Real Estate Commission- 5-6% ( Remember this is negotiable)
Misc Title Attorney fees – $750
Pricing your Jupiter home is one of the most important decisions you will make and overpricing your home can limit showings , offers and how quick your home will sell. I have seen many times some of the top Jupiter realtors will price a home to high and never sell the home. The seller brings in a new realtor and reduces the home price and the home sells. Many agents will give you an inflated number only to entice you to list your home with them and they beat you up for price reductions day after day.
The next and just as important is home preparation. Besides removing items and rearranging I always recommend cleaning carpets, tiles and maybe some painting. A clean fresh home always give the appearance that you care and maintain your home. You may have to spend a few dollars in exchange for a much larger return.
Lastly try and make showings for agents flexible as you can. It’s always great to have some notice but at times agents will be showing homes in your Jupiter neighborhood and realize your home may be that perfect one for their customer once they learn more about the customers needs.
Another important item to look at is feedback from potential buyers. They are unbiased and are seeing your competition. Don’t take it personally but do pay attention to it.
