Carpet Installation in Your Client’s Home in 10 Days or Less

When your clients decide to sell a house, they’re making a huge decision — likely one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives. One of their biggest concerns will be the amount of time that the house is on the market, because they’ll have to figure out alternate living arrangements while you’re showing the house.

For their sake and for yours, you’ll want to turn around a sale as quickly as possible. That’s where Sloane’s Carpet Secret can help.

How Long Does It Take to Sell a House?

The number varies, depending on where you live in the country. According to Zillow, the national average time to sell a house is 68 days from listing to close, not including 30 days of escrow. In some areas, that number is as low as 36 days. In others, it can be more than 150 days. That’s time that your clients don’t want to wait.

Of course, you can’t start the clock on a listing until the home is ready to list. Some homes need repairs, a fresh coat of paint, aesthetic improvements, or other work before they can be listed. And of course, in many cases, you have to wait until your clients move out before you can even start on the work.

That’s why quick turnaround is so important. You and your clients can’t afford to spend any more time than is absolutely necessary getting a house ready to hit the market. At Sloane’s, we know the importance of getting a house in tip-top shape as quickly as possible, which is why we can sell you new carpet and get it installed in ten days or less.

Why Replacing Carpet Matters

We know what you’re thinking: if time is of the essence, why bother replacing the carpets at all? Wouldn’t it save even more time to just leave them as they are? That’s true, but it’s not worth it — replacing the carpets in a home is one of the best things you can do for its resale value.

When a house is empty the flooring will take center stage. You want a home to be a blank slate for new buyers, and the flooring is a part of that image. If there are visible patterns of wear or dirt on the flooring when you show the house, it won’t make the house feel like their new home — it’ll feel like someone else’s old home.

It’s also a great opportunity to update the decor of the home. The median age of a home in the US is around 37 years old, and you don’t need to watch Stranger Things to know how much fashions and styles have changed since 1982. Even if the carpet was last replaced only ten years ago, there’s plenty of room to modernize. Newer materials, better stain resistance, modern Berber styles, and cool gray colors are a great way to make any home look new and chic.
