Staging Tips To Help Sell Your Omaha, NE Home For Top Dollar

by Nancy Heim-berg
Staging Tips To Help Sell Your Omaha, NE Home For Top Dollar Whether you are a first time seller or have sold tens of properties over the years, there is always much to learn when it comes to staging your home to sell quickly - and for top dollar! That is where we come in. In today’s blog post we are going to be discussing a few tips and tricks to help you stage your Omaha, NE home in order to attract the most buyers and get the best offers in this hot real estate market. Let’s dive in: 
 
-Our first tip is one we are sure you hear often, and that is to declutter your home. It is important to remove items throughout your house that you no longer want or need to not only make space in your home, but to ensure you aren’t hauling unnecessary items to your new home. Make sure to clean and clear surfaces, closets, floors, and pantries so potential buyers can get a good sense of the space in the home. 
 
-Adding a few elements such as a bowl of lemons by the sink, vases with colorful flowers or a basket of fresh fruits and vegetables is a great way for buyers to feel right at home. You want your house to feel cozy, clean and livable, and these little touches are a great way to accomplish that.
 
-The front of your home is the first impression buyers will have of the property, so make sure its a good one! Complete tasks such as power washing walkways and siding, wash windows, mow the law and/or reseed, repaint the front door, stain the porch floor and plant bright flowers. 
 
-Setting your dining room table is a warm touch to add to your home when staging. You don’t necessarily need to break out your fine china, but having a nice arrangement is a wonderful way to show buyers where they will be making future memories with family and friends. 
 
-Make sure each room has a clearly defined purpose. If you have extra bedrooms in the house, it may be a fun idea to transform one into an office space or a fun lounge area/game room. This is a great way for buyers to see how extra space in the house can be utilized. 
 
-Don’t forget to stage your outdoor areas as well. Some people only think to stage the inside of their homes, but many families love to see how the outdoor space can be utilized as well. Adding some cozy chairs, a lawn game, warm blankets and even a fire pit is a great way to add to the outdoor space of your home. 
 
-If you have pets, be sure to take extra care to neutralize odors and/or stains in spaces throughout your home. This can be a big one for buyers, so bringing in a professional team to clean and steam your carpets could be a great investment.
 
-Lastly, you always want to make sure your home is cleaned prior to showings. Wipe those counters, clean those windows, dust that mantle - potential buyers will be impressed to see the house in great condition!

Facts About Selling Real Estate In Omaha, NE

by Nancy Heim-berg

Facts About Selling Real Estate In Omaha, NE It is no secret that the housing market is booming! If you are looking to purchase a home, chances are you are having to act quickly and are most likely up against many other buyers who are bidding for the same home. 

In today’s blog post we are going to be talking about some facts when it comes to selling your home in Omaha, NE - let’s dive in:

-With more and more families looking to purchase a home in Omaha, NE, inventory remains tight. Sellers are controlling the market and are in a better position than ever. It is not uncommon for sellers to receive competitive offers on their homes, many of which are over asking with a fast closing. 

-Mortgage rates have hit record lows over the last year, mainly due to economic uncertainty from the pandemic. How long will this last you ask? While no one can say for certain, the Federal Reserve is intending to keep interest rates low until the economy steadily improves, which is a big draw for buyers. This means that sellers can expect many eyes on their listing and interested buyers at their doors. 

-First-time homebuyers will be a crucial part of shaping the Omaha, NE real estate market in the years to come. During the pandemic, many people yearned for more space and are opting for a spacious house versus a one-bedroom rental. Millennials are tired of tight living quarters and expensive rent payments, which is why they will continue to be a large part of the real estate market moving forward. 

-While no one knows what the future holds for the real estate market, one thing that will always hold true is that local expertise will always win. Having a knowledgeable real estate agent by your side is a great way to ensure you are getting the most money for your home, no matter what the market conditions look like.

The Right Way To List And Sell Your Home In Omaha, NE

by Nancy Heim-berg

The Right Way To List And Sell Your Home In Omaha, NE If you are in the market to sell your Omaha, NE home, the process may seem daunting and overwhelming at first. There are a lot of things to consider and clutter to sort through. To help alleviate those unpleasant feelings, we have broken down the selling process into a few easy steps to help you understand the steps a bit more. Let’s dive in:

-Find a knowledgeable and qualified real estate agent that knows the market and will work hard in your best interest. This is one of the most important steps as a great real estate agent will be able to walk you through each step of the process and ensure your home is sold quickly and for top dollar. (Learn more about our team here!)

-Determine the list price for your home. This is something your real estate agent will be able to help you determine based off current market trends, comps in the area, etc. Pricing your home too high could lead to your house sitting on the market for a while, and an underpriced house will leave money on the table.

-Get your home ready to sell by decluttering, making repairs and staging. You want potential buyers to walk in and feel like they are home. You should strive to make it comfortable, yet depersonalized enough that buyers can picture themselves living in the space. 

-Market and list your home. Most of this process will mostly fall on your real estate agent as they will be the one to list your home on the MLS database. Additionally, they may market your home in other ways such as holding an open house, a broker/agent showing, coordinating professional photographs of the home and posting sale signage in the yard. 

-Show your home. The more potential buyers that come through your doors, the more likely you are to receive an offer. Make sure that your home can be tidy and clean at a moments notice and you are able to leave your home during the showing as to not distract buyers. 

-Review offers that come in and negotiate if necessary. Besides the offer price, other areas to consider before accepting an offer include buyer pre-approval, seller concessions, closing costs, timeline and buyers contingencies.

Tips For Making Your Omaha, NE Yard Safe For Pets

by Nancy Heim-berg

Tips For Making Your Omaha, NE Yard Safe For PetsWith spring in full swing and warmer weather in the forecast, now is the perfect time to prepare your backyard as you get ready for more time spent outdoors. As you prep, is important to consider the common hazards that are present to your pets in your yard in order to keep them happy and healthy. In today’s blog post we are going to be acknowledging those threats and some ideas you can implement to make your yard safe for your furry, four legged family members. Let’s dive in:

-Toxic Plants: Did you know there are many plants that are toxic to dogs and cats? It’s true, and many of them are commonly found in backyard gardens. It’s best to avoid planting these toxic beauties to ensure your pet doesn’t decide to snack on them. Some of these dangerous plants include: Lilies, Iris, English Ivy, Chrysanthemum, Begonia and Daffodils. *You can always check with your local nursery to find some pet-friendly plants. 

-Fleas and Ticks: It is no secret that fleas and ticks can be dangerous to the health of your pets. To help avoid this issue, you can limit the habitats in which they thrive by removing dry or long grass and maintaining your lawn. Additionally, you can put your pet on a preventative medication for an extra layer of protection.

-Dangerous Tools: Pets can be curious creatures and therefore it is best to remove any tools that could be dangerous to them. Keeping the tools in the garage, shed or basement is a great way to stay organized and ensure your pets don’t get ahold of them.

-Fencing: As we mentioned above, pets can be curious and want to explore the busy world beyond your home. Installing a fence is a great way to make sure they can enjoy the backyard space without having to keep an eye on them at all times. If you already have a fence in place, take some time to ensure it is in good repair.
