What Tulsa Home Sellers want to know – how long will it take to sell my house?
The first question most Tulsa home Sellers will ask is “how long will it take to sell my house?” While that’s a valid question, there’s not one Realtor who can answer that question with any degree of validity!
We rely on historical sales in your neighborhood of comparable homes to determine what updates are needed to sell your home and how to price it so that it will sell in the desired time period.
Some Tulsa home Sellers want to net a specific amount from their sale, regardless of time required on market. MOST Tulsa home Sellers will settle for a more reasonable amount in order to achieve a quick sale.
In addition to studying recent Tulsa homes sold in your neighborhood, we prepare an ABSORPTION ANALYSIS – to determine the rate your specific neighborhoods is absorbing home sales. If twelve homes sold in the past six months, we can assume that two homes are selling per month. If there are currently eleven homes for sale and your home will be number twelve, we know that there is a six-month inventory available from which Tulsa home Buyers will choose.

So, what do you need to do as a Tulsa home Seller to ensure that your home is the next to be picked?
Our home selling formula never changes:
- Prepare your home for sale. Update, make repairs, and if possible, stage your home.
- Price your home competitively. We don’t have to give it away, but we need to be priced correctly to attract Tulsa home Buyers.
- Market aggressively. Have professional photographs taken and blast them throughout the internet.
Be prepared to react to feedback and adjust to an ever-changing climate. If the home two doors down comes on the market a week after you list yours, how do you compare in amenities and price?
And, if your home has been on the market for sixty days, re-run the comps to see what was chosen instead of yours. Make adjustments quickly!
