During the course of our lives, most of us will have to sell a home. And there’s a likely chance that some of us will struggle. Your home might take longer than expected to get off the market. Your listing might expire before an offer is made. These potential scenarios can feel daunting, but they’re not impossible to navigate. If you’re in a rush to sell your expired listing, below are three tips to get you started. 

1. Find the right buyer. 
Finding the right buyer means marketing your home in an effective way. If you’re ready and willing to compromise in order to sell your home quickly, specify that fact in your listing. Advertise your property both online and in-person with signs, listings, and flyers. Get the word out using as many platforms as possible. Eventually, the right buyer will appear. 

2. Be available.
The more flexible you are, the faster you’ll be able to sell your expired listing. Buyers are often demanding and will request to see your home whenever it’s convenient for them, not you. Because of this, you must be available at all times to quickly tidy your home and leave the premises while they complete a tour. Make sure your house is consistently in pristine condition, just in case. This can be stressful and overwhelming, at times, but it will help ensure you don’t miss out on a promising buyer. 

3. Don’t overprice your property.
It’s completely normal to want to get as much money as possible for your home. However, buyers want to spend as little as possible. There’s a fine line between fair property value and a price that will appeal to the masses. If you choose incorrectly, your expired listing could continue to sit on the market for months. Find a price that works for you and is also attractive to potential buyers. The lower your price, the quicker you’ll sell.
