Curb Appeal Checklist

First, look at the exterior of your home, better known as your curb appeal. Look at the exterior of your home from the view of a passerby. What jumps out at you? What unique features seem to fade into the background?Acknowledging this assists us in deciding what plan of action we can use to draw buyers from the street and into your home. If your home isn't pretty on the outside with retouched paint and colorful garden plants it's time to get those things done. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and elevate your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Can buyers picture themselves watching a movie in your living space, unwinding in your spa tub or getting work done in your home office? I want your Open House to pleasantly accept buyers and offer them a sense of comfort. I'll help you achieve this by suggesting changes that enhance the features of your home. I'll suggest that you reduce the effect of anything that gives the look of clutter. Table and counter tops should be neatly arranged. Knickknacks, sentimental items, family photos, and refrigerator artwork should get moved out of sight. You need to remove the personal details from the home so buyers can picture it as their new home.

I know exactly where a room's best features are and how to show them off. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be put in storage, rooms that need a fresh coat of paint, carpet needing to be changed, fixtures that could use shining, and any other improvement that can quickly be made to positively affect the sale.

I'll ensure your house has mass appeal and that it's inviting, staying away from "offensive" or "can't-work-with" hues on the walls and furniture. And if the house is empty, you can consider borrowing furnishings. The goal is for your home to look ready to live in as opposed to bare.

Setting the Stage

You'll know when to show your home, because all of the improvements mesh together to paint a picture of what buyers can look forward to after they close on your house. Dark rooms can really dampen a buyer's spirits, so we'll do things like open curtains and reduce shadows where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music playing softly and make sure a nice scent circulates room-to-room. We'll include cozy-looking throws, and place pillows on your love seat and bedding. We want buyers to feel like your house has the potential to be.
