If you want to get top dollar for your home, some of the following tips may pay off handsomely. Review some tip to sell your home at the highest possible price.
REPAIR: Go through and fix those leaky faucets,
replace cracked or broken tiles, fix doors that don’t close properly, replace
light bulbs, and patch up any holes in the walls. Put up a fresh coat of
neutral paint on the walls of rooms that have unusual colors such as purple,
red, etc. In the bathroom area, make sure to caulk the tub and shower. Little repairs around the home can save a lot
during the contract process.
CLEAN: Block out a day or
two to thoroughly clean your home inside and out. Don’t forget about those
tough to access areas. Dust the furniture, ceiling fan, and light fixtures.
Make sure no cobwebs are present in the corners of the main rooms. Not
only will this help your home look great but it will also get rid of any odors
that could turn away prospective buyers once they walk inside.
Part of this process is
also decluttering by putting all your neutral non-decorative items in moving
boxes or a storage facility. You want to be sure your kitchen counters are free
of mail, work documents. When you home is organized the buyers will feel that you
take care of the rest of the home too.
CURB APPEAL: Within the
first ten seconds of entering the home, most people will make a decision of
whether they want to buy it or not. Impress them by trimming the trees and
cleaning up the yard. Make sure the grass is cut, the bushes trimmed and the
walkways and driveway pressure washed.
STAGING: Staging a home is considered one of the most
important item to do since 90% of homes listed for sale are seen on the
internet, so effective staging will make your home stand out from the rest.
Make the rooms bright and neutral so the buyer can visualize their furniture in
the space. Remove any family photos so the buyers are not distracted.
Consider different window
treatments in some of the main rooms like blinds, shutters, or new curtains., and
hang up fresh new towels in the bathroom.
