The Emotional Side of Selling

Let’s face it. Selling your house needs emotional and practical decisions. Property is, in some ways, a “product.” You want this product to be sold at the best price quickly so that you can buy your next dream house. But a house is also a place filled with emotional memories. You will remember the leisure room where the birthday parties for children were held; The dining room with a lot of family meals and the patio where sunlight had been enjoyed for many moments.

That is why managing the emotional side when selling your house is very important.

Here are some tips:

• Let your children draw pictures of the things that they’re looking forward to their new home.
• Remind your children that they’ll be able to stay in touch with their old friends while making new ones.
• Visit the areas where you’d like to find your next home. Walk around. Have a sense of what it’s going to be like to live there.
• Consider taking a keepsake with you from your old home to help ease the transition.
