Seller Etiquette: Tips for a Worry-Free House Sale
Everyone wants their home sale to go smoothly, but sometimes that's easier said than done. Our real estate agents have put together five important tips for how you can sail past the rough patches and ensure everything goes well on your end.
- Make Yourself Scarce During Tours
Prospective buyers want to be able to imagine themselves living in your home, so it's important to remove as much of you from the premises as possible. This means more than just leaving during tours of your home, however. It also means getting the pets out of the house, so that agents and their clients don't have to worry about not letting a cat or dog outside that's not supposed to get out, or worse, being ambushed by an unfriendly animal who doesn't understand why there are strangers in the house. And even before that, you'll need to wipe yourself from the clutter and decor. Staging the house means decorating it in a welcoming but fairly impersonal fashion, so that prospective buyers are free to imagine themselves living there.

Why Home Is Where the Square Footage Is
Our real estate agents have seen many home trends come and go, but one thing that's always high up on buyers' lists when they're looking at South Bend homes for sale is getting as much square footage as their budget allows. There are lots of reasons buyers are looking for all that extra space, so make sure to highlight all your home has to offer.
- More space for family. One of the biggest reasons people decide to start looking for a house in the first place is because their family is growing. New babies, growing children, and blended families all can mean a need for more space.

Yes, You Can Still Sell Your Home Right Now
Our real estate agents are hard at work helping clients like you across our South Bend community. It's an unusual time in real estate, but important for prospective sellers to know buyers and sellers are jumping back into the market!
Now is a terrific time for South Bend homes for sale to get listed.
With mortgage rates reaching historic lows – no exaggeration – buyers are revisiting their plans. Many buyers who were waiting for a more favorable market are now on board. But that doesn't mean South Bend home prices are plummeting.
On the contrary, South Bend home prices are standing strong and in many cases, even rising. But buyers are attracted to the potential to get a great deal on a home financing package. That makes them more likely to aggressively seek out a home they truly love. That alone is a great reason to get excited about selling in South Bend.
But, yes, there are even more advantages to selling your home right now. Here's what you need to know.
