GETTING YOUR HOME READY TO SELL DOESN’T NEED TO BE OVERWHELMING!

With Spring arriving, many of you are thinking that now is the time to make a change and get

your home on the market.

You’re right! This time of year, your home will shine !

Interested in a few tips to get your home “show home ready”?

* FIRST IMPRESSIONS:  Sweep your sidewalk, mow your lawn (yes that!) put a hanging basket at the front door, put fresh bark mulch on your beds .

* DE-CLUTTER:  The more visual space, the better! Pre-pack things that you won’t need for the next few months, tidy out closets, clean out excess junk, magazines,countertops. Too many knick knacks are overwhelming and create visual clutter.

* DE-PERSONALIZE:   Buyers want to imagine their furniture and decor in your home.  Pictures of cute babies and family vacations will distract them from envisioning their furniture and family in your home!

* SPIC N’ SPAN:   Now is the time to clean the windows & carpets! Make sure

your bathrooms are spotless, walls are fingerprint and ding free, and window

coverings fresh and clean.  Hire a window cleaner!  (we know a good one!)

* BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK:   One of the cheapest upgrades to your home is a fresh coat of paint!  Stay light & fresh & consistent thruout your home.

* FIX IT! :   Now is the time to take care of all of those annoying little repairs that you’ve learned to live with … people will notice the door knob that’s wiggly, or the broken blinds and dripping tap.  Do it yourself, or pay someone  … you’ll more than re-gain your investment!
