Considering selling your home?
Times are changing and you’re thinking about moving the family into a new home. But before you start searching for your next dream home, you’ll need to figure out when you’re going to sell your existing home. The decision is a complex one, especially considering the unpredictable economic environment you’re living in. And while there’s no magic formula for determining the best time to sell a home, there are several factors you should consider.
Here are some of the key areas that an agent can help you with:

Bergen County Home Seller FAQ
Selling a home in Bergen County, New Jersey can come with a lot of pitfalls. You want to make sure that you can get the highest possible value for a property as well as ensure that you’re leaving it in the right hands. Bergen Realty Team understands this process better than anyone, including the things that potential home sellers want to know more about! We’ve compiled the answers to our most frequently asked questions below. Give us a call today to learn more and secure the best price for your home!
Our team can help you price your home! We look at comparables from homes we’ve seen in the past as well as current trends to determine your home’s approximate market value. We can even help you increase that value with expert recommendations!
Focus on making repairs to the things that you can control. Fix any issues with your roofing and siding, update paint in rooms where the color is fading, and upgrade appliances and countertops where you can – but don’t go overboard with the enhancements you make!
You can take as much time as you’d like to consider an offer from a potential buyer, but you can always come to us with any concerns or questions. Typically, it’s polite to respond within 48 hours of the initial offer with either acceptance, a counteroffer, or denial, but circumstances can draw that process out.
Appraisal isn’t something you need to handle on your own! Our team can help you handle all aspects of the process. It typically happens after a buyer and seller agree on terms for a property. The job of an appraiser is to simply vouch for the value of the home, and is not to be confused with a home inspector, who compiles a more detailed analysis of the property.
If you look at it solely from a statistical standpoint, selling a home will take anywhere from a month and a half to two months. Depending on the season, the state of the real estate market, and other factors unique to your circumstances, this process could be longer or much shorter!
