Tips and preparation for your home

  • Curb Appeal
    Buyers will naturally envision your house inside from the look of your curb appeal. Spend a few days cleaning up weeds, trimming the grass, and maybe plotting a few flowers. Windows must be clean and visible from the inside and outside. And lastly, remove any items not appealing around the front door. For condo owners, make sure the pathway to your front door is clean and free of trash.
  • First Impressions
    Take a look around the outside of your house. Are all areas free of refuse? Do you need to plant a few flowers? Are the windows clean? Your front door gives a vital first impression while a REALTORŪ and prospect wait for you to answer the bell. Be sure it is scrubbed clean.
  • Staging The Rooms, Kitchen, and Bathrooms
    Can the sun shine in? Open curtains and let the buyers see how cheerful your home can be. Dress up the windows with freshly laundered curtains. Any leaky faucets, sticking doors or windows, warped cabinet doors? Now is the time to fix things. Details count. Bathrooms help sell homes! Make this room sparkle. Invest in new shower curtains, towels, and mats in beautiful colors. Check and repair caulking. Kitchens are where most buyers are critical. Keep workspaces clear and uncluttered - this always makes the area look larger. The stove, refrigerator and sink should all be spotless.
  • Final Details
    If your home has not had a recent structural pest control inspection, it would be wise to order one at the time of listing. It may also be advisable to obtain a general home inspection prior to marketing. Having a complete picture of the condition of your house will encourage cleaner offers and reduce negotiations later on.
