Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your first chance to create a positive impact on buyers from a street perspective. The pluses and minuses that jump out at buyers shape their first opinion of your home and how you upkeep house's regular maintenance.Acknowledging this helps us to decide what steps we can take to draw buyers from the street and into your home. If your home isn't the best it can look on the outside with touched up paint and colorful garden plants it's time to get those things done. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your home seem to say, "This is Your Next House" to a buyer? Walking-through your house from a buyer's view, I'll advise you of arrangements that improve Open House appeal. I'll suggest that you put out of sight items that give the illusion of clutter. Tabletops should be free and clear. Arts and crafts, souvenirs, family photos, and refrigerator works of art should get stored away too. You need to remove the personal details from the home so buyers can imagine it as their new home.

I'll review each room of your home. Changes that directly impact your bottom line include easy-to-fix items like pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need fresh paint, carpet that needs steaming, fixtures that need polishing, and windows that need cleaning.

Potential buyers like to see a home that draws them in with charm. Anything that could be uninviting should be put away in order for your property to garner mass appeal while on the market.
