Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your first chance to create a great first impression on buyers before they enter your home. The positive and negative features that jump out at buyers shape their first thoughts about your house and how you perform house's regular maintenance.Acknowledging this helps us to choose what steps we can take to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your home's exterior isn't inviting with retouched paint and colorful greenery it's time to get those things done. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and add dollars to your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Can buyers picture themselves hanging out in your living room, reading a good book in your reading nook or inviting family and friends over for a dinner in your eat-in kitchen? I want your Open House to welcome buyers and offer them a sense of ease. I'll help you achieve this by recommending small improvements that highlight your house's features. I'll suggest that you eliminate pieces that give the appearance of clutter. Tabletops should be clutter-free. Arts and crafts, sentimental items, family photos, and refrigerator works of art should get stored away too. I can help you simplify the decor of house. Disheveled or messy places make your home seem less spacious and buyers have a harder time imagining themselves living there.

I'll look over each room of your home. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be put in storage, rooms that need a fresh coat of paint, carpet needing to get changed, fixtures that could use polishing, and any other improvement that can inexpensively be made to positively impact the sale.

I'll make sure your house is appealing and that it's comfortable, staying away from "offensive" or "can't-work-with" hues on the walls and furniture. And if none of your belongings are there, you can think about borrowing furnishings. You want your house to look inviting as opposed to uninhabited.

Setting the Stage

At every showing, we're doing well if we're engaging the buyer's senses. Dark rooms can really dampen a buyer's spirits, so we'll do things like draw back curtains and change light bulbs where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music playing softly and make sure a pleasing aroma flows room-to-room. We'll include cozy-looking bedspreads, and throw pillows on your love seat and bed. We want buyers to feel like your current house is their future home.
