Hold open houses to sell your home fast


The benefits of an open house are debatable. Industry experts agree that they tend to benefit realtors more than home owners. But that doesn't mean that they can't work. The key is to hold them at various times of the day and week so that folks with busy schedules can squeeze in a viewing. Make sure to schedule open houses on Saturdays, as well as in the evenings during the week so people can stop by after work.

Incentives: Offering incentives sometimes can also help shorten the sales cycle, but be careful. In many cases incentives don’t always do the trick. Remember there is a fine line between wanting to sell a house quickly and having it look like it's a fire sale. If prospective buyers get the idea that you're desperate to sell, they will try to get you to accept a bargain-basement price so try not to let on that your looking to sell your house fast.
