Thinking about selling and not quite sure where to start to prep your house? Here are three quick tips to make your house more appealing to buyers.
Enhance Curb Appeal:
Boost your home’s exterior with colorful flowers, a freshly painted front door, and modern house numbers to create a lasting first impression. Ensure the yard is well-maintained, and consider adding a welcoming bench or seasonal wreath to the entryway. Consider pressure washing and be sure to look UP and clean out cobwebs from the front porch or lanai.
Maximize Cleanliness and Detail:
A clean home appears more spacious and fresh, allowing buyers to picture themselves living there. Pay attention to details like cleaning light switches and baseboards. Here in Florida’s salty air, exterior hardware such as doorknobs and hinges can rust after just a few years. Replacing those will give your home a well-maintained look.
Create an Inviting Interior:
Declutter and depersonalize to help buyers envision themselves in the space. Repaint walls in neutral colors to create a welcoming environment, and maximize natural light by washing windows. Strike a balance between depersonalizing and yet keeping a warm and inviting feel with well-placed plants and simple artwork.
