Welcome to the home sellers section for Tucson, Green Valley, Oro Valley, Marana, Vail, Sahuarita and all Pima County, AZ areas. Please use the following valuable sellers information and resource.

The following are some helpful tips to sell your home:

1.  De-Clutter:  This one is simple.  De-clutter everywhere; inside and outside.  If  it's taking up space, it is a potential candidate to be thrown out.  As a seller, you need to make that all important mental conversion from "home to live in" to "house for sale."  Personal things are a big distraction as you want the buyers to be able to visualize their own belongings in the house.

2.  Repair:  Buyers want everything working so don't disappoint them - dripping faucets, broken windows, leaking roofs, damaged walls and doors etc, beg the question in the buyer's mind... What else is broken or doesn't work?

3.  Lots of Light:  The last thing a home buyer wants to see is a dark home with all of the doors and windows covered.  Open the window coverings and let the light in.

4.  Clean windows:  Buyers want to know and see the view they will have from every room - don't make them look through dirty windows.

5.  Kitchens & Bathrooms:  The two most important rooms in the house.  They must be spotless.  Just cleaning up isn't going to be good enough - you need to "deep clean" all counters, floors, cabinets and all the fixtures in the bathrooms.  You may consider new fixtures or countertops and perhaps redoing the shower and tub enclosures.

6.  Odors:  Absolute deal killers are cigarette and pet odors.  If this is a problem-have the drapes, carpets and furniture professionally cleaned and please "no smoking" in the house.  Mix a little lemon oil with water in a spray bottle and use lightly will add a bit of freshness without overpowering the house.

7.  Paint:  A fresh coat of paint on the outside and inside is an excellent way of freshening up your home.  Be sure to use neutral colors and avoid accent painting.

8.  Yard Work:  Deal with overgrown bushes, shrubs and trees.  Everything in the yard needs to be trimmed, watered , manicured and "living."  Remove everything lying around the yard including sports equipment, boats, trailors, toys, etc.
