4 Tips to Help Your Evanston Home Sell!


Now that we’ve entered in February, many are turning their thoughts toward the spring Evanston Real Estate market.  For those looking to buy an Evanston home, they’re probably already doing a casual search online for properties that are currently available.  Now is still a good time to buy a home, so buyers will either jump on the opportunity now or will wait it out to see if there are new homes that find their way onto the market within the coming months.

If, however, you’re considering selling your Evanston home this spring; you’ll want to begin preparing your home now.  You’ll also want to discuss with your Evanston Real Estate agent about putting your home on the market sooner rather than later.  For those early spring buyers, they’ll already be looking and you’ll want to have your home as one of the first homes they see in order to help your home stand out from the competition.

There are a number of things you can do to get your home ready to sell, so our team of Evanston Real Estate agents and advisors here at Shoreline Property Advisors wanted to provide a few of the top things you can do to ensure your home is ready and shows well to interested buyers.  Take a look!

1. Update listing photos- If you had your home on the market last year, you’ll want to update your listing photos!  Your Evanston Real Estate agent can take care of getting photos of your home or condo that reflect any updates you’ve made or to simply allow your home to appear fresh on the market.  Any buyer who has seen your home online in the past may not realize you had taken your home off the market and it will seem stale.
2. Create a Sensory Experience- Whether you light candles or have freshly baked cookies on the counter, appealing to the senses of taste and smell can immediately make buyers relax and feel comfortable in your home.
3. Highlight Your Outdoor Space- This is an important space for anyone moving to Evanston. Buyers want to know they can enjoy the outdoors from the comfort of their own home, so creating a welcoming environment on your patio, deck or yard will allow buyers to envision themselves in the space once the warmer weather hits.
4. Set the Table- Staging your dining room with beautiful place settings can help buyers envision hosting friends and family for dinners in your home.  Chances are buyers will have friends and family visiting for vacations, so it will give them that feeling of gathering with loved ones in the home.
Taking note of these tips and making the necessary updates will help boost the appeal of your home to Evanston buyers!
Of course, we are always here and ready to answer any questions you have about putting your home on the Evanston Real Estate market.  We would love the opportunity to talk with you about your home and your real estate needs.
Please feel free to contact us today so we can get your Evanston home on the market and on its’ way to being sold!
