6. Market Your Condo
– Be sure your agent uses a professional photographer and/or videographer so that your condo is highlighted at its best angles.
– Make sure your condo is getting noticed online, in print, through open houses, and through general networking.
– Play up the amenities in your building! Highlight those perks. If someone is used to renting, they may not have had their own laundry space before. Maybe your condo has indoor parking, so that means no more snow to clear. Don’t forget to highlight your storage space as this is something empty nesters will be concerned about if they are moving from a larger home into a condo.
– When you do have an open house, leave the condo so that potential buyers do not feel pressured to fall in love with your condo right away. Be flexible with timing and notify your concierge and neighbours about visitors. Consider leaving your guests a parking space, too.
– Provide your realtor with a key to your condo and any amenities in your building so that things run smoothly and potential buyers have full access to viewing your condo.
