Best Tips for a Successful Pleasanton Luxury Home Open House

Getting ready for an open house? While this can be an important part of the entire home selling process, hosting an open house can also be a challenging and exhausting event. There are a lot of factors you have to take care of and worry about. Stress less by following these tips on hosting a successful open house for Pleasanton luxury homes for sale:

Stage your house properly. 

Make sure that everything is neat and organized. Make time to have all the necessary repairs done. Clean the space. Opt to create a neutral environment using simple wall colors such as grays, whites, and beiges. Get rid of personal displays like the drawing pinned on your fridge and the family photographs on your mantel. Buyers want to be able to picture the potential of the space and having a neutral environment makes it easier for them to imagine themselves living in it.

Time your open house. 

Pleasanton luxury REALTORS® suggest holding your open house on a non-holiday Sunday between 1 to 4 in the afternoon. Never make the mistake of hosting it at the same day and time that a big event is happening in town. Do your research properly or you might find yourself sitting at an empty home eating freshly-bakes cookies by yourself.

Prepare all property information.

Give your visitors either a brochure or a CD containing all the important information they need to know about the property for sale. Apart from the usual information like home or lot size, number of bedrooms, and tax assessments, you can also include a pre-sale home inspection report. You can also opt to provide a map of the neighborhood, highlighting the popular amenities, location of schools, hospitals, and more.

Don’t be at your open house.

If you have a Pleasanton luxury homes real estate agent who can take care of it for you, then don’t be there. There’s no reason for you to be at the open house. Some buyers opt for anonymity and therefore it doesn’t work well having the seller with them while they tour the home. When face-to-face with an agent, they are able to speak freely about their concerns and ask more questions about the place.

Don’t worry too much about hosting an open house. Simply follow the tips above and remember to be the friendliest and more accommodating person you can ever be during that day. For more tips on home selling, visit http://RhondaFee.com.
