How to Avoid a Botched Sale in Long Island




There are many reasons why a home may not sell. However, I'll be speaking about three major reasons why homes don't sell in Long Island. There are a few reasons why this is happening, and I see a trend among sellers. They're usually related to these three things:

1. Do you need to do repairs? Buyers don't like to see homes that need a lot of work. They want them in 'turnkey' condition so that they can move in and not worry about a failing garage door or a leaky faucet. Repair as many things as possible because they're all going to come up in the home inspection.

To see what buyers are looking for check out the Buyer's Guide!

2. Is your home in a good location? Is your home on a busy street? There's not a whole lot you can do to change your home's location. You can focus on other nice aspects of the home or you can reduce your price.


3. Is your home priced too high? Price is everything, especially right when your home hits the market. If you think the price is too high, adjust it quickly. Otherwise, your home will sit on the market and eventually go stale. Your price is your #1 selling point, so make it a very attractive number.
