How to sell your Raleigh home for top dollar

By Casey Styers, the Downtown Guru

Sellers get the most when the home is priced right from day one, looks its best in photos, and is marketed to the buyers most likely to want it. Overpricing is the most common and costly mistake.

Price from real sales

A good price comes from recent nearby sales of similar homes, not from online estimates. Homes priced right tend to draw more interest early.

Fix the small things

Fresh paint, working lights, clean windows and a tidy yard are cheap and make a big difference in photos and showings.

Market where buyers look

Professional photos, a strong online listing and outreach to local agents put your home in front of serious buyers fast.
