Las Vegas housing prices are still historically high, but things are shifting into the buyers’ hands. We’re now seeing fewer houses selling and more sellers decreasing their asking prices. In fact, there is a 3.5 month supply of houses available in Southern Nevada. If you’re hoping to sell your house fast, this is surely not the news you want to hear.

Fortunately, you do have options to help sell your Las Vegas house faster. You might not be interested in all of them, but at least you have some different options to look at. We always tell our clients to run through the numbers to see what works best for them. Many of them find that it’s cheaper, faster and easier to sell their house for cash.

Below are some of our best tips for selling your house fast in a slow market. 

Deep Clean and Declutter

Buyers want homes that are ready to be moved into. They don’t want to put their own time and money into painting walls, replacing carpet and cleaning up after the previous owner’s mess. So, if you’re going to sell your house, you need to get it move-in ready. Remember, you’re now working in a slower market, so the details matter! 

Here are some of the things you should focus on: 

• Declutter the home 
• Deep clean the home 
• Boost the landscaping and curb appeal 
• Clean or replace the carpets 
• Paint the interior 
• Install fresh mulch 
• Trim trees and shrubs
• Remove dirt, grime and cobwebs from entrance 

Address Overdue Maintenance 

In a slow market, you’ll have to tackle some of those maintenance projects that you left months or years ago. You don’t have to drop tons of money on a kitchen or bathroom renovation, but you should address leaky plumbing, dents in the walls, burnt out light bulbs, cracked tile and so forth. 

If you can’t do these projects on your own, hire a handyman to do them for you. It will cost more, but you can get the tasks done faster, allowing you to list your house sooner. 

Get Professional Photos Taken 

Many buyers are using the internet to find houses they’re interested in, so your online listing can’t be an oversight. Make sure that you get professional photos of your house, as well as a virtual tour, photos of your floor plan and photos of your HOA, if you live in one. Buyers are using this information to pick out the houses they want to see in person, so it’s important that everything looks its best. 

Plan for Heavy Marketing 

Because people often start their search online, marketing your property will be key to getting noticed. Unless you’re selling your own home, your realtor will be responsible for the marketing, which may include posting your house on social platforms and optimizing the listing. 

Be sure to follow up with your realtor to make sure they are doing what they can to get your house sold. Aggressive marketing, combined with the right price and professional photos, are the ingredients needed to sell a house fast in a slow market.
