You can do a lot to increase the appeal of your property and to create a lasting impact on potential buyers.
What To Do To Prepare:
The following are a couple of factors to keep in mind when listing your property for sale:
- Show Stopping Curb Appeal.
Keeping your landscape pristine, and adding creative touches to your yard, such as colorful annuals, will create an immediate impact on passers-by and potential buyers. One of the best ways to increase the value of your home is invest in lush landscaping. The powerful first impression will signal quality and care to potential homebuyers.
- Property Repairs.
Simple upgrades such as window repairs, cleaning the baseboards, and a fresh coat of paint in the most frequently used rooms will instantly brighten up the property. Do not overlook the minor details that can have a major impact to potential homeowners.
- Cleanliness.
Keep your property uncluttered, fresh-smelling and well-lit from top-to-bottom. Pay attention to details: put away the personal items, pack the clutter, and keep your home neutral. Home buyers want to be able to picture themselves living there. Help them with their new home vision by packing anything personal, and valuable to you.
- Home Staging.
Whether you choose to hire a professional staging company or stage the home yourself, this is an important part of preparing your home for the market. Anything you can do to help potential home buyers feel comfortable and relaxed in your home, the higher your chance is for a great offer.
- Disclosures and Inspections.
I am very familiar with the legal procedures involved in disclosures and am ready to help you develop a thorough disclosure statement beneficial to both you and the buyer, as well as suggest home improvement measures before placing your property on the market (such as termite and pest inspections).
- Showtime.
Presenting your property to potential buyers is a job that I will take care of for you. Buyers feel more comfortable discussing the property with the agent, if you are not there. Moreover, I will know what information will be most useful in representing your interests when speaking with prospective buyers.
