Selling/Listing a Condo
“No, it’s not just like selling a house,” commented one property expert on the marketing of a co-op property. This is because of the special qualities of such units. For example, since a co-op normally has less square-footage than a house, the tighter space magnifies tiny flaws. “In a small space like a [co-op], little issues like chipped paint and scuffed floors can come across as big issues in the eyes of buyers, so be sure to prepare before placing your [unit] on the market,” advises a veteran property agent. This makes the choice of the property agent very important for the seller. The seller should look for an expert in the local market, such as Boston City Properties.
