What makes some Sudbury homes sell faster than others?
Condition, pricing, location, and marketing all play major roles. Sudbury realtor Tanya Vanden Berg explains why certain homes attract quicker offers and how sellers can boost their own chances.
The biggest factor is pricing. Homes priced accurately based on recent sales in New Sudbury, Garson, and the South End draw more attention in the crucial first two weeks. Buyers jump on homes that feel fairly priced and skip those that seem too high.
Next is condition. Move-in ready homes with fresh paint, modern lighting, clean layouts, and updated flooring sell faster because buyers see less work ahead. Even small improvements can make a big difference in listing photos — the first place most buyers form an opinion.
Location also matters. Areas near schools, trails, parks, and shopping tend to attract steady buyer traffic. Homes close to Laurentian University, the Four Corners, or major employers often see quicker interest due to convenience.
Strong marketing boosts visibility. Professional photos, online ads, MLS® exposure, and social media promotion ensure more buyers see your listing. Tanya uses targeted marketing to reach active local buyers and out-of-town relocations, increasing your chances of a quick sale.
Finally, showing availability matters. Homes that are easy to view get more traffic and faster offers.
