Moving for a new job, relocating to be closer to family, in desperate need of a change of pace—there are plenty of reasons why people want to sell their homes fast.
If you’re selling on a timeline and don’t want to sacrifice profit, the Blonar Team is here to help. Here are our top tips for preparing to sell your home fast.
Find the Right Price
The key to maximizing your profits and drawing in buyers? Listing at the right price. If you’re in a rush, it’s easy to price your home too low or too high, but both have their downsides—either you’re missing out on more money or buyers won’t be interested.
Luckily, we’ve been working in real estate around the Pittsburgh area for years. We know how to predict market trends, evaluate the conditions of homes, and price properties competitively. Curious about what your home is worth? Just request our comparative home analysis and find out!
Market, Market, Market
If you want to reel in buyers, you can’t just rely on the price. Pittsburgh is a competitive market, and there are tons of new houses being listed every day. So how do you stand out? If you sell your home on your own, it’s going to take some effort and marketing skills to get your home seen.
Our team offers a comprehensive range of marketing tools for your selling needs. Social media, web pages, MLS databases, local contacts, newspapers, brochures, and more—we can help you market your home so well that every potential buyer in the area will know about it. If you want to sell fast, then the more buyers who know about your home, the better.
Up Your Value & Stage It Well
So you’ve set the right price, marketed your property, and now a few buyers are interested in seeing more. Before they even walk through the door, your home should be ready to impress. If you stage well and throw in a few DIY updates, you could end up getting a much better price for your home.
In order to stage well, there are a few things to keep in mind:
- Clean every corner and crevice of your room. Make the room shine like never before, because buyers will be looking at every small detail!
- Depersonalize your decor so you don’t turn off buyers. Try sticking to neutral colors and using houseplants for decoration.
- Set the mood by increasing the natural lighting and incorporating some welcoming scents.
While you’re at it, make sure you finish any unfinished maintenance projects on your to-do list. Even small updates like new doorknobs, a fresh coat of paint, and a new mailbox can go a long way.

Finding the right price for your home, marketing it to all potential buyers, walking through each room and recommending value-boosting updates—working with a real estate expert is a surefire way to sell quickly.
