DRESS YOUR HOUSE FOR SUCCESS!!

Spending a few hours beautifying your house can go a long way toward a quick sale at top dollar. Taking the time now to look at several key areas will result in a dramatic increase in serious buyers. These few steps are a must for any home seller to follow: 

1.   Take a walk through your house with a "buyer's" perspective. Is the house warm and inviting, or does it look run-down, old, and cluttered? 

2.   Touch-up paint in all rooms. If the existing paint is especially unsightly, paint the entire room with a neutral color. 

3.   The most examined rooms in the house are the kitchen and the bathrooms. Make sure these rooms shine by removing all clutter, caulking around sinks and tubs, and cleaning all fixtures. Dripping faucets are easy to fix yourself 

4.   Prepare for a showing the same way you would prepare for friends coming over. Make the beds, pick up clothing, sweep and mop as needed. It should be easy for prospective buyers to move throughout the house. 

5.   Buyers will be interested in storage space in your house. Make sure your closets are clean and clutter-free. If you have clothes that you're not wearing, consider moving these to a storage facility to make your closets look more spacious. 

6.   Too much furniture can make a room look small and cramped. Consider moving extra chairs or tables to a storage facility as well. 

7.   What is the first thing your prospective buyers will see? Your front door. Make sure your door and entry are spotless. Paint if needed, and place a few bright flowers along the sidewalk.
