PRIOR TO PUTTING YOUR HOME ON THE MARKET (listing w/agent)
WHERE TO BEGIN ? First Impressions, Remember what first attracted you to your house when you bought it? What excited you about it most? When desiding how best to present your home for sale, it is helpful to try to get back into that Buyer's frame of mind.
A spruced up house makes a great impression on potential Buyers. An attractive property grabs their attention and makes them excited about finding a house thats looks and feels well cared for. Because Buyers believe they''ll encounter fewer problems if they Buy it, Your house becomes more appealing and stands out from the competition. So if you prepare your home correctly,you'll save time Selling it when it's on the market.
INTERIOR: Clean Everything, Buyers expect a spotless house, inside & out, so clean everything especially your windows and window sills. Scrub walls(better yet! a fresh coat of paint.) clean floors, tile and ceilings, cupboards and drawers, kitchen and bathrooms. Wash scuff marks from doors and entryways, clean light fixtures and the fireplace. Don't forget the laundry room. and put away the toys and clothes, declutter the entire house.
Again, The first impression makes an impact on a number of levels. It's not just the way your house looks to potential Buyers, but how it feels and smells to them, how their friends & family will react, how they imagine it would be to live there....with simple improvements throughout your house, you can grab the attention of potential Buyers and help them see why your house is right for them. Then Sold! and, we draw up an agreement and after the closing process, usually within 30 days, we are looking for you a New House across town!!!
