The Quickest Way to Sell Your House During COVID-19

Written by Ashley Lipman

The recent Covid-19 pandemic that the world is experiencing has changed the way the world lives. The pandemic has had a huge impact on the health of the world, as well over 2 million people have confirmed cases as of the writing of this article.

It has also had a major impact on the economy, as many businesses are shut down and people are staying home. As you could imagine, this has made things more difficult for those in the real estate industry. While many people are pulling their homes off the market, it is indeed still possible to not only sell your home during these trying times, but also sell it quickly.

Without any further ado, let’s look at the quickest ways to sell your home during Covid-19.

Sell the Home For Cash

One of the best ways to sell a home quickly, even during the Covid-19 pandemic, is to sell your house for cash by ISoldMyHouse.com. Cash buyers often move quickly and you don’t have to wait for months for loans to be approved. You will almost certainly get money quicker with a cash sale than with any other method.

With cash sales, there is also a lower chance that a sale will fall through. Not only is the selling process much quicker, but it is also very simple. There are much less steps involved when selling for cash than a traditional home sale in most instances. Of course, make sure you are consulting with your Meyer Lucas Realtor to evaluate if this is the best option for you and be sure to abide by the social distancing laws or restrictions in your area.

Allow for Virtual Tours or Have Great Photos

One of the biggest ways that the real estate market has been hit is in terms of marketing. There are no open houses and physical home tours, which are great marketing tools. Because of this, showing off your home to individuals has become more difficult. Thankfully, virtual tours exist and are becoming much more common. These can help buyers take a step by step look at your home, without ever having to leave theirs.

If you aren’t able to host virtual tours, you want to make sure that your online advertisements and postings have incredible photos. The listing should include dozens of high-quality photos from all over your home. If you have great photos or a virtual tour option, there is a much better chance that you will find an interested buyer quickly.

Be As Available and Flexible as Possible

Being flexible as a seller is always a good way to sell your home quickly, and this is especially true during the current pandemic. Everyone in the real estate space is seemingly walking on eggshells. As a result, you want to be as accommodating as possible. Being quick to answer questions or deal with buyer concerns can ensure interested buyers don’t move on to the next seller.

While in-person meetings aren’t a thing right now, you still need to be available to field buyer questions. Be willing to answer emails, texts and calls regularly, and it is a good idea to allow for Skype or Zoom calls as well. These virtual meetings can be a godsend and can ease the concerns that many buyers will have in the current landscape of the industry. The more available you are as a seller, and the amount of flexibility you have, should directly tie into how quickly you’re able to sell.

In conclusion, we hope that this article has been able to show you some great tips when it comes to quickly selling your home during the Covid-19 pandemic!
