During my practice as a real estate agent at REMAX Atrium in Prague, I have Selling a property is a big step that can be quick and profitable or full of unnecessary complications. As an experienced real estate agent at REMAX Atrium in Prague, I have seen what mistakes owners can make when selling - and what they can cost them. How to avoid them and sell your property in the best possible way? Let's look at the 8 most common mistakes when selling a property and how to avoid them.
1️⃣ 8 Most Common Mistakes When Selling a Property: Incorrectly Set Selling Price
Setting the right price is key. If the price is too high, buyers will not come. If it is undervalued, you will lose money. At REMAX Atrium, we have access to detailed market analyses, which is why I can help my clients set a price that is in line with the real estate market and is attractive to buyers.
2️⃣ Insufficient Preparation of the Property
First impressions matter. Apartments and houses that are not tidy or have a neglected interior sell worse. I recommend home staging, i.e., professional preparation of the property for sale. Cleanliness, plenty of light, and proper arrangement of the space can significantly increase the attractiveness of your offer.
3️⃣ Poor Presentation and Marketing
It's not enough to just place an ad and wait. Professional photos, video tours, and well-written descriptions make a huge difference. At REMAX Atrium, I use modern marketing tools to ensure maximum visibility of your properties and reach potential buyers where it is most effective.
4️⃣ Ignoring Legal Requirements
Any mistake in the contract or missing document can complicate the sale. I work with verified lawyers who ensure that everything goes smoothly and without problems. Thanks to this, my clients do not face any unpleasant surprises.
5️⃣ Unprofessional Negotiation with Buyers
Negotiation is an art. I often encounter sellers who underestimate the power of good arguments and give in unnecessarily. Thanks to my experience with dozens of successfully closed deals, I help my clients achieve the best conditions and the maximum price.
6️⃣ Bad Timing of Sales
The market is changing, and the right timing can significantly affect the success of a sale. If you are thinking about selling, I can advise you on when is the best time to enter the market and what to expect from the current situation.
7️⃣ Insufficient Communication with Buyers
When a prospect doesn't have enough information or has to wait a long time for a response, they often lose interest. That's why I emphasize fast and professional communication and ensure that prospects receive all the necessary information in a timely manner.
8️⃣ Attempting to Sell Without a Real Estate Agent
Many people try to save money and sell their property themselves. However, the real estate market is complex, and a well-prepared buyer can easily put pressure on the seller. Working with a broker not only means a higher selling price, but also peace of mind and certainty that everything will go smoothly.
