Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your only chance to create a great first impression on buyers from a street perspective. The pluses and minuses that jump out at buyers form their first opinion of your house and how you upkeep home's regular maintenance.Knowing this helps us to decide what plan of action we can use to entice buyers from the street and into your house. If your home's exterior isn't as neat as possible with touched up paint and colorful garden plants we'll need to address those issues. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and elevate your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your house seem to say, "This is Your Next House" to a buyer? Looking through your house with a buyer's eye, I'll suggest arrangements that enhance sales appeal. I'll tell you eliminate things that give the look of clutter. Table and counter tops should be cleared off. Brick-a-brack, sentimental items, family photos, and play time drawings should get stored away too. You need to "neutralize" the house so buyers can see it as their new house.

Every room gets a once-over. Changes that directly impact your bottom line include easy-to-fix items like pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need fresh paint, carpet that needs to be replaced, fixtures that need shining, and windows that need washing

I'll ensure your house has mass appeal and that it's inviting, avoiding "loud" or "personalized" shades on the walls and furniture. And if the house is vacant, you can consider renting furniture. You want your house to look homey as opposed to cold and empty.

Setting the Stage

You'll know when to show your house, because everything comes together to paint a picture of what buyers can expect after they choose to buy your house. Dark living areas can really dampen a buyer's spirits, so we'll do things like draw back curtains and change light bulbs 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 pleasant scent flows throughout your home. We'll include cozy-looking throws, and pillows on your couch and bedding. Buyers should feel like your home is their future home.
