Welcome Home Checklist

Does your home seem to say, "This is Your New Home" to a buyer? Touring your home from a buyer's perspective, I'll suggest changes that improve market appeal. I'll suggest that you take away anything that gives the impression of clutter. Counter tops should be free and clear. Brick-a-brack, souvenirs, family photos, and refrigerator artwork should get moved out of sight. I can help you de-clutter your house. Less than inviting or cluttered spaces make your home seem unkempt and buyers have a harder time picturing themselves living there.

I'll review every room of your home. Improvements that directly impact your bottom line include fixable like pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need new paint, carpet that needs to be replaced, fixtures that need polishing, and windows that need washing

With me by your side, you'll know that your home has mass appeal and that it's inviting, avoiding "loud" or "can't-work-with" colors on the walls and furniture. And if none of your belongings are there, you can try temporary furniture. You want your home to look homey as opposed to bare and uninhabited.
