The COVID-19 pandemic has brought many things to a halt, including many real estate transactions. While some buyers are still reluctant to go to open houses right now, it doesn’t mean you can’t successfully sell your home. Below, find out which steps you’ll want to take in order to make your home stand out online and keep things clean if buyers want an in-person tour.



How to Make a Better Virtual Tour


Whether your listing will contain photos, a virtual tour, or a combination of both, you’ll want to make sure your property looks its absolute best.


● Work with Wichita 3D Tours to create the ultimate 3D tour of your home.

● Consider hiring a professional cleaner to give your property a deep clean.

● Consider repainting any rooms with dingy walls or outdated color schemes.

● Work on your home’s curb appeal by sprucing up the lawn and trees.

Stage your home carefully to make it stand out for your listing photos.

● Study other listings in your area to see how homes are staged and presented.



What to Do the Day of a Showing


In the event a buyer can’t decide without an in-person tour, take these steps to show you’re making an effort to minimize the chance of spreading infection while also making your home look its best.


● Don’t forget to clean doorknobs, light switches, and other high-touch areas.

Keep lights on to minimize touching and to show your property at its best.

● Put out a bottle of hand sanitizer for buyers to use as they tour your home.

● Consider providing buyers with disposable shoe covers to wear indoors.



During the pandemic, it’s best to focus on your home’s virtual presence. This can include taking great real estate photos or working with Wichita 3D Tours to create a virtual experience. No matter how good your photos are, you should still be ready in case any buyers need to have an in-person showing to make the final call.
