Preparing
Your Home For Sale
First
Impression is So Important
Curb appeal is vital. Your lawn should be trimmed, sidewalks swept,
front door clean, doorbell working.
Painting
For A Better Sale
A minor investment in paint will pay dividends in the form of a better
price and/or a quicker sale.
Here
Comes The Sun!
Open the curtains and clean the windows so a prospect can see how
bright and cheerful your house is. Dark, dreary rooms are not appealing
to homebuyers.
Don’t
Be A Drip!
Fix leaky faucets. Dripping water suggests faulty plumbing and major
repair bills. Discolored, rust-stained sinks are also warning signs
– they should be clean and sparkling.
Little
Things Mean A Lot
Loose doorknobs or cabinet pulls, sticking doors and drawers, wobbly
hinges, stuck windows – are negative factors. Check and repair
all these minor flaws.
Safety
First
Keep stairways and corridors absolutely clear. Clutter is unattractive
and can cause accidents.
Bathrooms
Sell Homes
Make bathrooms sparkle. Clean sinks and toilets and repair any damaged
or discolored caulking.
From
Top To Bottom
Let prospects see the full value of your basement, attic, garage and
closets by removing junk and cartons. Rent a short-term storage space
if necessary.
