Old sale ideas new again
Wednesday, November 5, 2008 @ 9:30 AM

You have had your house or apartment on sale for a long time…and nothing happens?

Q1.- Is it because you do not get visitors/potential buyers?
Try the following three steps mini-guide…
-     Do a market research regarding similar properties around. This way you can make a comparison and establish a good, reasonable price. Remember that, together with higher possibilities of sale, a less priced sale produces reduced plusvalia and capital gain tax in your favour.
 
-     Strategic Publicity: Of course online resources are preferent:
a)   Look for professional websites with good traffic of visitors. Google will tell you.
b)   Produce a nice informative document with all the house data required by National and/or Regional regulations.
c)   Good pictures ( specially of the bathroom and kitchen) and even a good video will help a lot.
 
      -     Wash the face:
a)   Some small, unexpensive reforms will make you house look much better and  more attractive.
b)   Of course, clean and maintain the house, specially before the visits of potential purchasers
 
Q2.- Ok. You have already done all that and that buyer does not still show up:
 
-     Rent with an option to purchase…the current status financiation talks by itself… no mortgage options…. Rent with an option to buy. ( Highly advisable, for every rental contrat in Spain, to submit the contract to arbitration and to hire an Insurance for rental payment default)
