If you’re trying to sell your house in an active market, you may have to give people more reasons to purchase your home. There are probably going to be several residences that are comparable in terms of price and square footage. There are plenty of ways to add more value to your house to make it stand out above the rest.

It’s a good idea to budget properly. Review your current income and expenses to learn just how much you can afford. You can start saving for your goal right away. Set aside a certain percent or dollar amount from each paycheck to put towards this goal. Remember that you’ll need to have enough funds for your down payment, monthly mortgage and utility bills, and closing costs.
Sellers are required to pay certain closing costs. The total can fluctuate from one sale to another. They are also dependent on the type of house that is sold and the city, county and state.
The median sale price for single-family residential homes in the Outer Banks area at the end of November 2021 was $475,000, a year-to-year drop of 1% from $477,500.
