Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your only chance to make a positive impact on buyers before they enter your home. The good and bad features that jump out at buyers create their initial perception of your home and how you keep up your home's regular maintenance.Knowing this helps us to decide what measures we can take to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your home's exterior isn't as neat as possible with refreshed paint and bright greenery it's time to get those things done. Follow 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? Examining your house with a buyer's eye, I'll advise you of adjustments that build up Open House appeal. I'll help you take away pieces that give the appearance of clutter. Tabletops should be neatly arranged. Knickknacks, sentimental items, family photos, and play time artwork should get stored away too. I can help you de-clutter your house. Unattractive or busy areas make your home seem less spacious and buyers have a more difficult time picturing themselves living there.

I know exactly where a room's best features are and how to show them off. I'll note the pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to get changed, fixtures that need brightening, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively affect the sale.

I'll ensure your house is neutral and that it's comfortable, steering clear of "offensive" or "personalized" colors on the walls and furniture. And if none of your belongings are there, you can think about renting furniture. You want your home to look inviting as opposed to bare.

Setting the Stage

Together we'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music playing lightly and make sure a nice fragrance circulates room-to-room. We'll incorporate cozy-looking throws, and pillows on your chairs and bedding. Buyers should feel like your house has the potential to be.
