The most important factors in selling a home are the exact same as when you bought it. Schools, market conditions, proximity to shopping, neighborhood appeal, and condition of your home will be the main factors.
Ask yourself-what attracted me to my current home in the first place?
Whether or not you need schools at the time, schools will continue to play a vital roll in protecting your value and increased desirability. Award winning schools are the most important consideration. Great shopping centers create a lifestyle of convenience and social gathering spots. We are all creatures of convenience and these spots are exactly that. Whether you want to live in South Charlotte, with such shopping centers as Blakeney or Stone Crest, or up North in Huntersville where you have Birkdale Village these award winning centers are a hub for shopping and enjoyment. Today’s buyers are focused on a community and neighborhood that offer so many choices. Country club life style of golf, tennis, and an on site restaurant, having a club house with work out facilities and a lazy river for the family or just a well groomed community play a major roll in the ease of selling your home.
Real Estate is local in nature and not all communities are impacted by “market conditions”. Even though we face tougher economic times not all communities are declining in value. Some communities continue to outpace the market because of the factors I’ve listed above.
