What do you do to get your property ready?
Paint the interior and exterior
Clean or replace the carpets.
Fix everything that is broken
Remove all clutter from the house, especially stuff on counter tops and furniture. Remove all unnecessary furniture…. minimal is better. If you furniture is old and run down consider renting new furniture for a few months (make your house look like a model home)
Give the property curb appeal by keeping the yards in great shape and by planting colorful bedding plants in the flower beds
When showing the property open all the curtains and turn on all the lights…..try and get as much light into each room as possible.
Never leave the beds unmade and the house unkept.
Bottom line…make the house the best it can be. Neat, clean, and inviting. By doing these things you will sell your home quicker and get the highest possible sales price. These hints will more than pay for themselves.
