Get Organized
A cleaned and well-organized home is imperative when putting your house on the market. Before any showings, make sure you rid your home of any excess clutter and personal items that may deter potential buyers away. Remember, buyers want to imagine themselves in a house that they could make their own. Additionally, packing will help you get a jump start when it comes to getting ready to move.
Make It Shine
Make sure that your home is in excellent condition and has been cleaned thoroughly. A clean and well-maintained home shows that you have taken care of your house – something that is very important to buyers. Whether your home in 2 or 20 years old, buyers want to see it has been well maintained.
Update the Outside
Up the curb appeal of your home by making small updates to the exterior. Fresh paint and new flowers can go a long way when it comes to making that great first impression on potential buyers. The front of your home is the first thing anyone sees when they come to your house, so make sure that you are giving them something to remember.
And don’t forget the backyard! The back of your home is one of the most important spaces for entertaining and continuing that great impression. Keep your backyard functional by making the most of your porch or patio. Keep the lawn mowed and well kept, and add some flower pots for extra color and character.
Set the Stage
Staging your home is a great way to set yourself apart. Make the beds, keep areas tidy and add simple accessories around the house. Add throw pillows, blankets, curtains and art for added ways to give your home a welcoming feel. If your home is vacant, consider calling a professional stager to get their advice. Money invested in staging could save you months on the market.
Make Repairs
Take care of any last minute repairs or fix-ups that need to be made before putting your home on the market. Make sure all lights are working and that all of your doors and door knobs are in perfect shape. It’s the little details that make a big impact on home buyers!
