Preparing Your Property To Sell
     

o        First Impressions Are Lasting.  Make good first impressions.  If you live in a single-family home, evaluate the exterior.  Does the home have a good “curb appeal” to a buyer driving the area?  Do you need some colorful plants, or some landscaping fill-ins?  Keep lawn trimmed and edged and the yard free of refuse.  Make sure front walkway is swept.  The front door greets the prospective buyer.  Make sure that it is fresh, cleaned and scrubbed looking, windows, bulbs and lamp fixtures should look clean and in working order
    

      Hot Tip:  Every Seller Can Boost A Property's Exposure  Make your house easy to show - Install a lock box - Allow showing times that are convenient to buyers - Use a "Fir Sake" sign where permitted.
  
Create a Good First Impression by - Depersonalizing furnishings and decor so prospects can visualize themselves in your home - Emphasize curb appeal - Keep large pets at a distance.

 
REMEMBER - The next prospects who visit your home may be your buyers - be ready for them
 

o    Let The Sun Shine In.  Arrange shades of drapes to give maximum light.  Turn every light on, even during the day.  Replace burned out bulbs.  Let them see how cheerful your home can be.

 

o    Small Repairs Make A Big Difference.  Loose knobs, sticking and squeaking doors and windows, warped cabinet drawers, badly cracked plaster and other minor flaws detract from home value.  Have them fixed.  Many buyers believe there will be ten problems they haven’t noticed for every one they do see.

    

o    Paint For A Quick Sale.  Faded walls and worn woodwork reduce appeal.  You cannot find a better investment when you are selling a house than a few cans of paint.

    

o    Make Closets Look Bigger.  Neat, well-ordered closets show space is ample.  Remove all unnecessary accumulations from closets, garage and all rooms.  Remove excess furniture.  Your home will appear much larger than it actually is.

  

o    Is Your Age Showing?   Sometimes minor redecorating is recommended if certain elements of your home are dated and tired looking.  Dark wood, shag carpet, foil and flock wallpaper, etc. can be turn-offs even when the rest of your house is terrific.      I can suggest inexpensive and effective ideas to bring you a better sales price.

      

o    Pride Of Ownership Sells.  Cleanliness attracts buyers.  Put sparkle in your home and it will pay off.  For special showings and open houses, colorful fresh flowers give a special touch and show the pride you have in your home.  

  

o    Three’s A Crowd.  Buyers prefer privacy when being shown through a house.  That includes pets underfoot also.  Whenever possible, never stay in your house with house hunters.  The buyer will feel more relaxed.  If it is necessary for you or your family members to remain at home, don’t discuss terms, price, etc.

        

o    Silence Is Golden.  Be courteous but don’t force the conversation.  Apologies should never be made for any adverse conditions in your home.  It only emphasizes the defects.  Let Jack Barry handle any objections or answer any questions.  It is part of his job and training.

     

o    Reasonable Access.  Please let me know where you can be reached and anytime you will not be in town or available for showing presentations.  I will always call you with as much notice as I am given.  We are open 7 days a week and have voice mail for after hours.
