1. Common Mistakes Every Home Seller Makes
By – Charles Royster

2. Introduction
• Selling a home is both stressful and exciting.
• When you want to sell your home, just have
an overview of real estate market and see
whether it’s good time to sell then go
ahead.
• Some of the common mistakes which one
makes when selling home are mentioned in
slides below.

3. Pricing Your Home Improperly
• The most common
mistake made by home
sellers is improper
pricing of a home.
• If the home is
underpriced, the seller
will face a loss and if it
is overpriced, it would
be neglected by
buyers.

4. Not checking whether the Market Is
Favorable
• List your home when
the market is
favorable.
• If you sell your home
in an unfavorable
market, it would be of
no use. You will get no
outcome.

5. Rejecting The First Offer
• If you receive a good
offer immediately,
then don’t reject that
offer thinking that
buyers with higher
offers are on the way.
• It may happen that
your first offer might
be the best one for
you.

6. Failure To Keep Home Clean
• When you list your
home in market for
sale, it is important to
keep your home clean.
• All bathrooms and
bedrooms should be
cleaned and
unnecessary things
should be removed
from home.

7. Getting Discouraged
• Don’t get upset if your
home is not selling.
• A buyer may have
different opinions
about your home,
don’t get discouraged
by his views. Look at
your home as the
property instead of a
home.

8. Ignoring The Importance Of
Appearance
• Believing your home is
in good condition and
ignoring the
appearance of the
home will drive the
buyers away.
• Clean your home
properly and check for
any leaks.

9. Leaving Your Pets Free
• Keep your pets in
kennels or in a better
place when showing
your home to buyers.
• Some people have
allergies from pets so,
don’t keep them loose.
This protects your
animals and the guests
or buyers visiting your
home.

10. Untreated Offensive Smells
• A House that stinks is
the first to get rejected
by a home buyer.
• Smoking in your
homes decreases value
of your home as it can
stain walls.

11. Ignoring Proper Lighting
• Home owners make a
mistake of not
considering the
lighting factors.
• If you want to make
your home more
attractive, you can
change it through
different lighting
types.

12. Limit For Marketing Opportunities
• Don’t limit your
listings from being
marketed on different
sources.
• Make online listings
for your home. Don’t
put cluttered photos
online, this would
repel your buyers.

13. Conclusion
• Mistakes are a common when one wishes to sell
his home fast. But, paying attention to every
minute detail well in advance may save the last
minute rush ups.
• These considerations will help in selling a home
faster than the house that is not maintained well.
• Displaying a house in the Best Condition is all that
you need to focus on.
