Curb Appeal
Curb appeal is your best chance to create a positive impact on buyers from a street perspective. The positive and negative features that jump out at buyers form their first thoughts about your house and how you perform home's regular maintenance.
Understanding this helps us to choose what measures we can take to invite buyers from the street and into your house. If your house isn't pretty on the outside with refreshed paint and bright garden plants we'll need to tackle those as well. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and elevate your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home
Does your house seem to say, "This is Your Next House" to a buyer? Examining your house from a buyer's perspective, I'll recommend adjustments that enhance Open House appeal.
I'll advise you reduce the effect of anything that gives the appearance of clutter. Table and counter tops should be clutter-free. Arts and crafts, sentimental items, family photos, and kids' works of art should get stored away too. We'll de-clutter your house. Less than inviting or messy spaces make your home seem less spacious and buyers have a harder time seeing themselves calling your place home.
I know instantly where a room's best characteristics are and how to highlight them. I'll note the pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to be changed, fixtures that could use brightening, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively affect the sale.
We'll ensure your house has mass appeal and that it's friendly, staying away from "offensive" or "can't-work-with" shades on the walls and furniture. And if the house is empty, you can try borrowing furnishings. The goal is for your place to look homey as opposed to bare.

Setting the Stage
At your Open House, we want to capture buyers' attention. Brightness is critical and we'll open curtains, and change light bulbs where needed to show off your house. We'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music playing lightly and ensure a pleasant scent flows from every area. We'll incorporate cozy-looking throws, and pillows on your couch and bed. Buyers should feel like your current place has the potential to be. |
