Curb Appeal Checklist
Curb appeal is your only chance to create a strong first impression on buyers before they enter your home. The pluses and minuses that jump out at buyers form their initial thoughts about your house and how you perform house's regular maintenance.Acknowledging this helps us to decide what measures we can take to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your house isn't attractive on the outside with touched up paint and blooming garden plants we'll need to address those issues. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and increase your home's final selling price.
Welcome Home Checklist
Could a buyer picture themselves hanging out in your living space, relaxing in your spa tub or inviting family and friends over for a dinner in your dining room? I want your house to pleasantly accept buyers and give them a sense of contentment. I'll help you do this by recommending changes that highlight your home's features.
I'll help you get rid of things that give the appearance of clutter. Tabletops should be cleared off. Arts and crafts, souvenirs, family photos, and kids' drawings should get stored away too. I can help you de-clutter your house. Unattractive or busy spaces make your home feel unkempt and buyers have a harder time seeing themselves living there.
I'll look over each room of your home. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need a fresh coat of paint, rugs needing to be changed, fixtures that could use polishing, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively affect the sale.
Buyers expect a home that draws them in with charm. Personal items that could be uninviting should go into storage in order for your home to have likability to buyers.
Setting the Stage
I'll tell you when to open your home up to buyers, because everything comes together to paint a picture of what buyers can envision when they consider buying your house. Brightening up your interior is of major importance, so we'll do things like draw back curtains and create light where needed to show off your house. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music to listen to while guests look around your home and make sure a delightful fragrance circulates throughout your home. We'll include cozy-looking throws, and place pillows on your chairs and bedding. We want buyers to feel like your home is their future home.
