Curb Appeal
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 shape their first thoughts about your house and how you perform house's regular maintenance.
Knowing this helps us to choose what steps we can take to entice buyers from the street and into your house. If your home's exterior isn't inviting with refreshed paint and blooming garden plants it's time to get those things done. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home
Does your house seem to say, "Hello From Your New Place" to a buyer? Examining your property with a critical eye, I'll advise you of changes that improve market appeal.
I'll suggest that you take away items that give the impression of clutter. Table and counter tops should be neatly arranged. Arts and crafts, souvenirs, family photos, and play time artwork should get moved out of sight. We need to "generalize" the place so buyers can imagine it as their new place.
Every area gets a once-over. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be put in storage, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to be changed, fixtures that need shining, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively impact the sale.
Buyers' agents know that their clients like to see a house that brings them inside. Personal items that could be too personal should be put away so that your home will have garner mass appeal at the open house.
