I recently read that home buyers are making bigger down payments on their purchases. In the currently hot Calgary housing market, this could suggest that, in the end, buyers will have fewer funds available for renovations once they move in. All the more reason to stage your property for sale. Costs to purchase real estate are on the rise. According to a recent Globe and Mail article,
So if buyers are trying to avoid the increased premium, they are choosing to come up with the extra cash to pay at least 20% down payment. If they don’t have the cash, they are seeking help from other sources (like borrowing from parents). If a potential buyer is viewing your property for sale, you want to keep this cash flow issue in mind. Let’s say they need to buy a property that doesn’t require any money for renovations. And the property you are listing is not brand new. How do you help the potential buyer quickly see that your home will work for them? Staging! |
