How To Help Your Agent Sell Your House

Here are some great tips on how you can play an important part in the timely sale of your property. By taking the following steps you will help us sell your home faster!!

  • Make the Most of that First Impression - A well-manicured lawn, neatly trimmed shrubs and a clutter-free porch welcome prospects. So does a freshly painted – or at least freshly scrubbed – front door. If it’s autumn, rake the leaves. If it’s winter, shovel the walkways. The fewer obstacles between prospects and the true appeal of your home, the better.
  • Think Safety - Homeowners learn to live with all kinds of self-set booby traps: roller skates on the stairs, festooned extension cords, slippery throw rugs and low hanging overhead lights. Make your residence as non-perilous as possible for uninitiated visitors.
  • Make Room for Space - Remember, potential buyers are looking for more than just comfortable living space. They’re looking for storage space, too. Make sure your attic and basement are clean and free of unnecessary items.
  • Consider Your Closets - The better organized a closet, the larger it appears. Now’s the time to box up those unwanted clothes and donate them to charity.
  • Make Your Bathroom Sparkle - Bathrooms sell homes, so let them shine. Check and repair damaged or unsightly caulking in the tubs and showers. For added allure, display your best towels, mats, and shower curtains.
  • Create Dream Bedrooms -Wake up prospects to the cozy comforts of your bedrooms. For a spacious look, get rid of excess furniture. Colorful bedspreads and fresh curtains are a must.
  • Open up in the Daytime - Let the sun shine in! Pull back your curtains and drapes so prospects can see how bright and cheery your home is.
  • Lighten up at NightTurn on the excitement by turning on all your lights - both inside and outside - when showing your home in the evening. Lights add color and warmth, and make prospects feel welcome.
