Homebuyer Incentive Do’s and Don’ts for Your Lakeland Sandpiper Home

Homebuyer Incentive Do’s and Don’ts for Your Lakeland Sandpiper Home

 

Homebuyer incentive do’s and don’ts for your Lakeland Sandpiper home

Offering buyer incentives like a home warranty can set your Lakeland Sandpiper home for sale apart from the rest. Make sure your incentives send the right message to buyers to encourage them to buy your home for sale in Sandpiper Lakeland Fl.

To make sure you are giving the right incentives, follow these do’s and don’ts for offering homebuyer incentives:

DO’s

1. Use incentives that will set your home apart from the competition.

If all the homes for sale in your Lakeland Sandpiper neighborhood have the same patio, offering a stainless steel barbecue grill with a luxury patio set will definitely make your home stand out from the rest.

2. Offer incentives that compensate for your home’s flaws.

If your kitchen has an outdated wallpaper, offering a decorating allowance of $3,000 may help buyers accept and purchase your home despite the outdated kitchen wall. If your furnace is old, a home warranty may ease the buyer’s concern of having to spend thousands of dollars to replace it once they move in.

DON’TS

1. Assuming that all buyer incentives are legal.

Homebuyer incentives may be banned in certain states so be sure to check with your Lakeland Fl agent before offering buyer incentives.

2. Using incentives to mask a price that is too high.

The risk of offering expensive incentives like a luxury car or high-end TV is buyers may think it’s a gimmick to avoid lowering the sales price of your home. Ask your agent if it is better to lower your list price instead of offering a buyer incentive. Most of the time, homes that are priced just a tad below its true value will attract more buyers and agents.

If you have decided that offering buyers incentives will help sell your Lakeland Sandpiper home faster, choose incentives that will add value to your home or neutralize its flaws. The key to getting an offer lies more in addressing the buyer’s concerns about your home than in offering expensive incentives.
