Curb Appeal Checklist
Start with the outside of your home, better known as your curb appeal. Look at the outside of your house from the view of a passerby. What jumps out at you? What positive features seem to fade into the background?Acknowledging this assists us in deciding what measures we can take 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 blooming garden plants we'll need to tackle those issues. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and elevate your house's final selling price.
Welcome Home Checklist
Could a buyer envision themselves lounging in your living space, relaxing in your reading nook or inviting family and friends over for a dinner in your eat-in kitchen? I want your home to pleasantly accept buyers and offer them a sense of comfort. I'll help you do this by suggesting changes that highlight your home's features.
I'll advise you put in storage items that give the illusion of clutter. Tabletops should be cleared off. Arts and crafts, souvenirs, family photos, and play time works of art should get stored away too. I can help you de-clutter your house. Ugly or busy places make your home feel unkempt and buyers have a more difficult time picturing themselves living there.
Every room gets a once-over. Changes that directly affect your dollars include fixable like furniture pieces that should get rearranged, rooms that need new paint, carpet that needs steaming, fixtures that need replacing, and windows that need washing
I'll make sure your house is likable and that it's welcoming, staying away from "offensive" or "too-bright" hues on the walls and furniture. And if the house is empty, you can consider temporary furniture. The goal is for your home to look inviting as opposed to barren.
Setting the Stage
You'll know when for the Open House, because all of the improvements mesh together to paint a picture of what buyers can envision after they choose to buy your house. Brightening up each room is of major importance, so we'll do things like draw back curtains and add lighting where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music playing lightly and assure a pleasant fragrance flows throughout your house. We'll add cozy-looking bedspreads, and throw pillows on your couch and bedding. We want buyers to feel like your current house has the potential to be.
