Tips for Making Your Home More Saleable
Before you put your home on the market, there are
some things you can do to differentiate your house
among the competitors.
When preparing to put your home up for sale, your
first concern is the home's exterior. If the
outside, or "curb appeal" looks good, people will
more than likely want to see what's on the inside.
Keep the lawn and landscape nicely manicured. Trim
the bushes and season permitting, plant some
flowers. Be sure your front door area has a
"Welcome" feeling. A fresh coat of paint on the
front door looks great.
Of all the rooms inside your home, pay special
attention to the kitchen and bathrooms. They should
look as modern, bright and fresh as possible. It is
essential for them to be clean and odor free. A
fresh coat of paint just may do the trick. Have any
leaky faucets taken care of. A call to a plumber is
a wise investment.
Since you want your home to look as spacious as
possible, remove any excess or very large furniture.
Make sure that table tops, dressers and closets are
free of clutter. Don't use your garage, attic, or
basement to store these extra things. These areas
also need to have the impression of space. Instead,
put them into storage. Make sure walls and doors are
free of smudges and look for anything that might
indicate a maintenance problem, such as cracked
windows, holes in the wall or stained ceilings.
Quick tips for
showings:
-
Keep counter tops
cleared
-
Replace all burned out
light bulbs
-

window blinds
-

take them to a neighbor
-
No dirty dishes in the
sink
-
No laundry in the
washer/dryer
-
Clean or replace dirty
or worn carpets
-
Put on soft music
-
Place logs in the
fireplace on cold days, otherwise, the fireplace
should be clean
Always look at your home from the buyer's point
of view. Be objective and be honest.
