Curb Appeal Checklist

Begin with the exterior of your house, or your curb appeal. Inspect the exterior of your house from a street perspective. What jumps out at you? What awesome features seem hidden?Understanding this assists us in deciding what steps we can take to invite buyers from the street and into your house. If your house isn't pretty on the outside with refreshed paint and colorful garden plants it's time to get those things done. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your house seem to say, "This is Your New Home" to a buyer? Looking through your house from a buyer's view, I'll suggest changes that improve Open House appeal. I'll advise you put in storage anything that gives the appearance of clutter. Surface areas like tables, desks and counters should be neatly arranged. Arts and crafts, sentimental items, family photos, and refrigerator drawings should get moved out of sight. You need to "de-personalize" the home so buyers can perceive it as their new home.

Every area gets a once-over. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to be changed, fixtures that could use shining, and any other improvement that can inexpensively be made to positively impact the sale.

Buyers want a property that seems comfortable. Personal items that could be too personal should be put away so that your house will impress buyers at the open house.

Setting the Stage

I'll tell you when to show your house, because all of the improvements mesh together to create a picture of what buyers will expect after they choose to buy your house. Dark rooms can be a real mood killer, so we'll do things like draw back curtains and change light bulbs where needed to show off your home. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music playing softly and ensure a pleasing fragrance flows from every area. We'll make use of cozy-looking throws, and place pillows on your sofa and bed. Buyers should feel like your home is their future home.
