What's the best wording if you want a quick sale?

I think bring it to market then have the first viewings all on one day with an open house type approach might work well but with a OIRO at a very competitive price to start a flurry ..0

You just need to price sensibly, price speaks for itself, you don`t need wording.Bookworm225 said:"What's the best wording if you want a quick sale" ?

Prices don't speak for themselves, hence you don't see property listings without words, and very few people would just look at the price before deciding to view a house.2

I didn`t mean you would omit the description of the property, I mean that words like "priced for quick sale" etc. just raise flags in the buyer`s mind. Use one of the many price tracking apps to slightly undercut other sellers, see if that brings more views.Bigphil1474 said:Prices don't speak for themselves, hence you don't see property listings without words, and very few people would just look at the price before deciding to view a house.0 -

Why not just get another tenant?FlorayG said:"Offers in the region of..." or name a price? If I name a price, should it be higher than I'm willing to accept? Or the figure I will accept? Or even "offers over..." and name my rock bottom price, to raise interest? Is "motivated seller" as I've seen in some adverts really a useful thing to say? It always makes me suspicious when I see that
I'm willing to accept less than top market value but obviously want to raise as much as possible from it.
For context, it's a rental I have on BTL which will soon be vacant, so of course I want to be paying all the bills on it for as short a time as possible. I'm trying to balance ongoing costs against sale costs0
