How do I guide visitors around my property?

The time has come!

Your advertising is paying off. It may sound a bit odd, seeing as you know your property, but practice the tour you will give potential buyers with a critical friend in advance. That way, you can prepare for more difficult questions.

Guided tour with an ERA broker

Perfect! Your estate agent will ask you to be absent during the tour. Excuse me? Yes, that’s right. Visitors often don't dare to voice their opinions when the owner is around. A neutral party is much more interesting. Afterwards, your estate agent can inform you about your property's positive and negative points. This is crucial information you will need to achieve a sale. Moreover, a professional can often counter negative statements better. A win-win situation, right?

Give a guided tour yourself

Still going to do it yourself? Then be sure to remember this tip. Plan your guided tours at a quiet time. It's best not to do this when the neighbours are having a birthday party for their son. The noise can cause a lot of distraction and might give potential buyers the idea that the walls are not very soundproof.

How do I make the sale of my home official?

The sale of your home is made official in two steps. First of all, a sale agreement must be drawn up and signed. This is followed by the notarial deed through the notary.

Step 4

Get your home prepped

Before taking photos or welcoming potential buyers, it is important to prepare your home to make the best possible impression on future owners. In industry terms, this is called “home staging”.

How do I determine the value of my house?

How much is your house worth? The most important element in selling your home is, of course, the asking price. It's crucial to start with the correct price. After all, there are many risks when your pricing is not accurate.

What mandatory documents do I need?

If you sell your home through an estate agent, they will take most of the administrative hassle off your hands. If you are selling your house or flat yourself, you will need some documents to be able to sell your home.

How can I advertise my property?

If you are selling your home, reaching as many potential buyers as possible on as many different channels as possible is crucial. The more people you reach, the more likely the final selling price will be higher and your property will sell faster.
