Buying a property as an investment has become a trend of the era. A lot of people buy properties at a medium rate and as soon as the need arises, they sell them.
Whether you’re an investor or not, by selling your distressed property you’ll always pocket some good money. However selling your property is lot more of a job than just sticking out a sign on the lawn.
Find out how to sell your property following a proper route:
Exposure:
Your first consideration must be spreading the word out It is very necessary that people get to know about the property you’re selling and the price. You can do this by a number of internet postings. By not getting an enough exposure, you’re property is likely to stay in the market for a long time and you may have to sell it at a lower price. Hire a rel estate broker to help you out with it. They knows how to market the property so that it attracts potential buyers, by generating colored photos, featured sheets, etc.
Market Information:
It is very necessary to be aware of the market trends. Real estate is a dynamic industry, always having fluctuations in ...
... prices, and always moving. This generates a constant competition in the market and a great need for timely analysis. One should always be alert about it; otherwise they might end u selling the property at a cheap rate. Market knowledge is very important.
Ability to negotiate:
This is something that lots of people overlook. Clearly defining the limits on price discounts, freebies, or other add-ons before you meet with your prospect will ensure you come to a mutually beneficial agreement. Never give a range while talking t a client. Always quote some specific number regarding price. Never put anything in writing until the conversation is over. Keep in mind to keep the conversation light.
Legal issues:
One must be aware of the legal issues involved in selling the property. Never be a layman to it and always have a brief knowledge of what issues my rise up while dealing with selling your property. The contract for sale is drawn up once the solicitor has received all the relevant documentation from you and the lending institution. If the solicitor is preparing contracts for a sale by auction he just leaves the purchaser and purchase price blank until the auction is over and the purchaser is then known.
Value added services:
Real estate firms provide many value added services to the potential buyers such as pre-qualifying buyers for financing - and in some cases providing the financing itself. You must use such a firm because it might happen that your deal may have to wait until financing can be secured. You may have to suffer with the condition of delays that may affect the deal of your property

One should always sell the property keeping in mind the above points. Of course the reward would be a few extra bucks in the pocket and a satisfaction that you did the best to sell your property! 
