Tips for savvy home sellers
How can you ensure that your home will make the best impression possible?
1. Focus on restrain appeal.
The outside of your house can be the source of a very good first impression.
2. Clear out the clutter.
Get rid of anything you don't need or use. Fill up your garage or rent some off-site storage space if that's what it takes to clear out your home.
3. Use your nose.
To eliminate bad smells, bathe your pets, freshen the cat litter box frequently, shampoo your carpets, dry clean your drapes, and empty rubbish bins, recycling bins and ash trays.
4. Make all necessary repairs.
Buyers expect everything in their new home to operate safely and properly.
5. Introduce lifestyle accessories and make your home as comfortable and attractive as possible.
6. Get a buyer's-eye view.
Walk up to your home and pretend you've never seen it before. What do you notice? How do you feel about what you see? Does the home seem inviting? Well-maintained? Would you want to buy this home? Your answer should be an enthusiastic yes!
