So you might consider offering a $500 selling bonus to the selling agent. Money talks.

You wont have to pay the cash, it will come out at the end of the deal so instead of getting say $15000.00 back you can offer $5000.00 for repairs then you would get $10000.00 back at the table.

PRICE, PRICE, PRICE, PRICE, PRICE, PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A tin shack will sell if you price it right. So the answer is; if you price it right it will sell. In fact you can probably get a higher price for your house if you price it close to the actual market value than if you price it higher. You will draw in more buyers and increase the potential for multiple offers. Good Luck This is going to sound cold, but I don’t mean for it be.

Declutter as much as possible to show how spacious the place is... especially the closets. Make the place as "homey" as you can. Winter is not a great time to sell but keep your price reasonable and let potential buyers envision themselves in your home. What features made you fall in love with the place??? Emphasize them!!!
