In the Santa Barbara condo market, there is a bit of competition for buyers. To set your condo above the others and to ensure a quicker sale, there are a lot of things you can do. First, make sure the price is right. Look at the local market and surrounding neighborhood and price your condo off that. The more brokers you have, the exposure you will get so invite several brokers over for an open house.
Compose an individual "resource list" for prospective buyers. Families might be looking for nearby schools or parks while empty nesters are attracted to fine dining or cultural activities. Major points of interest should be bathrooms and the kitchen. Putting money towards upgrades here will pay off big. Incentives, such as a plasma TV or grocery store gift certificate, are a great way to bring in buyers.
