If you need to sell your house fast, then you don’t have time to find the perfect way of doing so. There are different options for selling your home and many of them can be quite time-consuming. 

Here are five great tips to help you sell your house fast in Indianapolis. 

1. Price the Home Right from the Start

If you want to get your house ready to sell fast, there is no better way to do so than to scope out similar homes in the same neighborhood and area. Sellers often want to price their house high so that they can have room for negotiating. If you start high you can sell it for the price you are hoping to get, right? While this may be the case sometimes, when you price high not only can that take more time because the negotiating process takes a while, it also can result in a lower offer. If you do your research and scope out what similar homes in your area are selling for, you can price your house slightly lower for a quick sale.  

2. Curb Appeal

Nothing sticks closer to you than a good or bad impression. Did you know that your mind naturally forms a biased opinion based on an appearance within seconds? This is why when you are selling your home, it’s important to make the outside of your home look beautiful.

Since you are in a hurry to sell your home, you don’t need to change the whole exterior of the home and redo your yard. Just simply tidy up the yard and throw away any clutter. Washing that old wind blown vinyl doesn’t take much time either and you may even be surprised by the true color underneath all that filth. Paint your door to stand out and to add a little bit of character to the home. Something so simple can change someone's impression and it can get you that fast sell that you need. Don’t spend a lot of money making these changes, just simply clean up your yard and exterior. 

3. Stage the Home

Decluttering your home can make it feel larger and more open. Cleaning and making sure your home smells good can also put a positive impression in a buyer’s mind. Dave Ramsey refers to this as “channeling your inner neat freak.”

Make sure that when you are staging your house that you are putting the appropriate furniture and items in the right rooms. This will help the buyer visualize how the home works, and it helps them be able to see themselves living in it. The less they have to focus on the more they can visualize themselves living in it.  

If you need to freshen up the place, add a new layer of paint. This is an inexpensive way to clean up those walls. Also, clean your carpets, and replace any old or damaged flooring, if necessary.  

4. Hire a Professional Photographer/Videographer

Once your house is ready, hire a professional photographer for the listing. They will be able to photograph your home and make it appeal to a buyer’s eye. Once the clean crisp photos are viewed, you will have a better chance of rounding up potential buyers.  

You may want to have a videographer come into your home and create a short video as well. This can better show the function of the house and help a potential buyer feel like they are actually there. This may motivate someone to come look at your home in person and hopefully purchase the home.
