Shape up the lawn - Keep your lawn trimmed and edged; flower beds cultivated; free of debris; paint the fence; put down fresh mulch.
Let there be light - Check and double-check all bathrooms and bedrooms - if you can’t read in the room, it’s probably too dark, so consider adding a floor lamp or table lamp and turn on the ceiling fans. Bright and airy rooms sell!
Showcase your kitchen - Kitchens and bathrooms sell homes - and should be gleaming and spotless. A well coordinated, organized and clean kitchen impresses potential buyers.
Brighten up - Check walls, ceiling and woodwork. If dirty or faded, wash or repaint where needed. It’s a small investment that can bring an early sale.
Top to bottom - Get rid of all unnecessary articles in your attic and basement. Arrange the remaining articles neatly to show this space to its best advantage. If your home looks too small for your stuff, it will look too small to potential buyers as well.
Closet Space - Closets appear larger when arranged neatly. Hang clothes properly and place shoes and hats in an orderly fashion.
Nip the drip - Fix those leaky faucets! If you don’t, the impression is that you haven’t taken care of the rest of the home, either.
Little things count - Take care of sticky drawers, loose doorknobs, squeaky patio doors and warped cabinet doors.
Clean, Clean, Clean - Bright windows and spotless rooms help sell your house. Keep rooms furnished when possible - empty rooms can be depressing.
Night Lights - When showing after dark, turn on all lights throughout the house. A well lit house gives the impression of friendliness, spaciousness and warmth.
