Top 3 Mistakes Sellers Make (and How To Avoid Them)


Selling your home is exciting - but small mistakes can cost big. The good news? They’re easy to avoid once you know what to watch for.

The first mistake is overpricing. Many sellers think starting high gives them “room to negotiate,” but overpriced homes sit on the market and make buyers suspicious. Work with your agent to price strategically for current market conditions.

The second mistake is skipping staging. Even minimal staging helps buyers picture themselves living in your home. Declutter, depersonalize, and let natural light shine in.

Finally, ignoring curb appeal can instantly lower perceived value. Tidy landscaping and a welcoming entrance set the tone before buyers even step inside.

Avoiding these pitfalls can mean faster offers and stronger sale prices. Want help positioning your home for success? Let’s talk strategy - your next buyer might already be looking!
