Curb Appeal

Curb appeal is your first chance to create a great first impression on buyers before they step foot into your house. The positive and negative features that jump out at buyers form their first thoughts about your house and how you keep up your house's regular maintenance. Acknowledging this assists us in deciding what actions we can take to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your house isn't attractive on the outside with retouched paint and blooming garden plants we'll need to tackle those as well. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and boost your home's final selling price.

Make yourself at home...

Could a buyer envision themselves watching a movie in your living room, relaxing in your spa tub or studying in your home office? We want your house to welcome buyers and give them a sense of ease. We'll help you accomplish this by recommending small improvements that highlight your house's features. We'll suggest that you eliminate things that give the appearance of clutter. Tabletops should be cleared off. Knickknacks, sentimental items, family photos, and play time works of art should get moved out of sight. We can help you de-clutter your house. Ugly or messy places make your home look smaller and buyers have a more difficult time picturing themselves calling your property "home".

We know instantly where a room's best characteristics are and how to show them off. We'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to be changed, fixtures that could use polishing, and any other improvement that can quickly be made to positively affect the sale.

We'll ensure your home is neutral and that it's comfortable, staying away from "offensive" or "too-bright" hues on the walls and furniture. And if none of your belongings are there, you can think about renting furnishings. You want your house to look lived in as opposed to barren.

Setting the Stage
We'll tell you when to host an Open House, because everything comes together to set the stage for what buyers will expect when they consider buying your house. Brightening up your interior is of major importance, so we'll do things like open curtains and add lighting where needed to welcome the buyer. Together we'll enhance the mood of the house with enjoyable music playing softly and assure a pleasant scent circulates room-to-room. We'll incorporate cozy-looking throws, and pillows on your chairs and bedding. We want buyers to feel like your house has the potential to be.
