Curb Appeal Checklist
First, look at the outside of your home, better known as your curb appeal. Examine the outside of your home from a quick glance from the street. What jumps out at you? What positive characteristics seem to fade into the background?Understanding this helps us to choose what we can do to invite buyers from the street and into your home. If your home's exterior isn't as neat as possible with touched up paint and bright greenery it's time to get those things done. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and elevate your house's final selling price.
Welcome Home Checklist
Could a buyer see themselves enjoying game night in your living room, relaxing in your reading nook or inviting family and friends over for a dinner in your dining room? I want your house to pleasantly accept buyers and offer them a sense of comfort. I'll help you do this by recommending changes that enhance the features of your property.
I'll tell you get rid of pieces that give the illusion of clutter. Counter tops should be cleared off. Kitschy sculptures, sentimental items, family photos, and kids' artwork should get stored away too. I can help you de-clutter your house. Unsightly or messy spots make your home feel smaller and buyers have a harder time picturing themselves living there.
I'll review every room of your home. Changes that directly affect your sale price include fixable like pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need new paint, carpet that needs steaming, fixtures that need polishing, and windows that need washing
Potential buyers like to see a property that charms them. Personal items that could be "offensive" should get moved out so that your house will garner mass appeal at the open house.
Setting the Stage
The entire time your house in on the market, we want to capture buyers' attention. Dark living areas can really dampen a buyer's spirits, so we'll do things like part the curtains and reduce shadows where needed to show off your property. Together we'll enhance the mood of the house with enjoyable music to listen to while guests look around your home and ensure a nice scent circulates throughout your home. We'll make use of cozy-looking blankets, and place pillows on your sofa and bedding. We want buyers to feel like your home has the potential to be.
