Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your first chance to create a strong first impression on buyers before they enter your house. The good and bad features that jump out at buyers shape their first perception of your home and how you upkeep home's regular maintenance.Knowing this helps us to choose what plan of action we can use to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your home isn't attractive on the outside with retouched paint and bright garden plants we'll need to tackle those issues. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and boost your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your home seem to say, "This is Your New Home" to a buyer? Walking-through your home with a critical eye, I'll advise you of changes that improve Open House appeal. I'll help you take away anything that gives the impression of clutter. Surface areas like tables, desks and counters should be cleared off. Kitschy sculptures, sentimental items, family photos, and play time works of art should get stored away too. You need to remove the personal details from the home so buyers can picture it as their new house.

I'll review each room of your home. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to get changed, fixtures that could use brightening, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively influence the sale.

I'll ensure your home is likable and that it's friendly, staying away from "loud" or "too-bright" shades on the walls and furniture. And if none of your belongings are there, you can think about temporary furniture. The goal is for your home to look homey as opposed to vacated.

Setting the Stage

In the short time that your house will be on the market, we want to capture buyers' attention. Brightening up your interior is critical, so we'll do things like open curtains and change light bulbs where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music to listen to while guests look around your home and make sure a delightful aroma flows room-to-room. We'll include cozy-looking bedspreads, and pillows on your couch and bedding. We want buyers to feel like your home has the potential to be.
