Tips to help welcome buyers to your home
First impressions are
important!
When prospective buyers come to
your house, the first thing they see is your front door! Be sure it looks fresh and inviting. Your yard should also have curb
appeal by being well kept.
Show prospective buyers what a great property they will get!
Faded walls and clutter will reduce the look of your home. Want a quicker sale at a
higher price? Invest in some minor redecoration like fresh paint, especially in the kitchen and bathroom. It will pay dividends
for you.
Let
the sun shine in!
Open the blinds and curtains all
the way to let in as much natural light in as possible. Show your home in it's best light!
Fix
that leaky faucet!
Dripping water discolors sinks!
It also encourages prospective buyers to look for other perceived problems.
It's the small stuff!
Take care of the minor details. Touch up trim on paint on doors, window
frames, fascia, etc. Be sure that your doors don't stick or have loose knobs. Windows and cabinet drawers too. Taking
care of the minor details now will keep you home's value.
Safety!
Keep
your rooms and stairways clear! Remove those slippery rugs and take care of low-hanging lights.
Big closets!
Make your closets look bigger by keeping them neat and well organized
to show that your home has ample storage space.
Bathrooms sell homes!
Make your bathroom sparkle! Check and repair any damage or discolored caulking in the bathtub and
shower. Bright towels and area rugs add to the appeal.
Bright and cheerful bedrooms!
Keep your bedrooms bright and cheerful by removing any excess furniture and clutter. Attractive
bedspreads and curtains make the room more inviting.
Illuminate!
Welcome prospective buyers by illuminating your home! Make sure the interior of your home is well lit when
it is shown.
Pets!
Keep all pets out
of the way and not underfoot.
Be
It Ever So Humble!
Never apologize for the appearance
of your home! If there are any objections or comments let me handle it, that is my job as your agent.
Don't
put the cart before the horse!
Trying to sell the
prospective buyers your furniture and/or accessories which you are not taking with you, before they have decided to buy your
home only complicates the sale.
