Tips
For Preparing Your Home For Sale
- Tidy
up the grounds, porches and garage. Keep the lawn trimmed
and edged. Make sure that your yard is clean.
- Your
front door adds to that first impression - be sure it is
scrubbed or repainted if necessary.
- Wash
windows and clean/dust window coverings.
- If
any decorating or painting is needed (especially in the
kitchen), do it now! Twenty dollars worth of paint will
make a much larger difference in the sales price.
- Bathrooms
help sell homes. Make this room sparkle.
- Illumination
is like a welcome sign. Replace bulbs and turn on the lights.
-
Wash dishes, make beds, put away clothes and straighten
up.
- Keep pets out of the way during showings - many
people are allergic.
- Leave the showing to the salesperson.
The salesperson knows the buyer's requirements and can best
emphasize the features of your home.
- Don't
discuss anything about the sale with a potential customer.
Let your agent discuss price, terms, possession and other
items concerning the sale. Your agent is qualified to bring
negotiations to a favorable conclusion.
- Never
apologize for appearance, it either distracts or accentuates
the problem.
- Pack
away valuables, store extra furniture, knick-knacks, and
medicines.
Pretend you are seeing your home for the first time, through
a buyer's eyes. Call us for recommendations on how to stage
the property for presentation to prospective buyers. That
is part of our expertise.
