What to Do Before Selling Your House

 

 

If you are thinking about selling your house, read this before you start the remodeling process.  If you increase a buyer’s desire for your property, it will yield stronger and higher offers.  One of the most common questions from sellers are, what changes can I do that will help sell the property?  Home buyers first impressions are always the most important.  When home buyers drive up to the front curb of your home, their first impressions are made within fifteen seconds.  It is very important to keep the front yard looking neat and clean.  Adding a bag of mulch, black bark and some flowers will spruce up the front yard and give it a little extra sparkle, and, make it stand out from the neighbor’s yard.

A couple things that are important to review before showing your home are living space and room lighting.  When buyers walk in, it is important for them to have a spacious feel.  Make certain that furniture and items placed against the wall is spacious so the buyers can envision their furniture in the room.  Make sure all the rooms are well lit.  Having well lit rooms throughout the house is very important so the buyers can get a clear sense of the space and energy. The kitchen is usually one of the main selling points. Making a simple update of some new paint and cabinet hardware to freshen a kitchen’s look, will go a long way.
