The spring real estate market is fast approaching, and I wanted to throw out some suggestions for anyone who may be getting ready to put their home on the market. Remember that the spring for real estate generally begins after Super Bowl Sunday.
Over the next few weeks I will post ideas and suggestions on how to prepare your home for sale.
Many Homeowners put their houses on the market and do not think about everything that should be done before hanging the for sale sign in the yard. Nothing pays dividends to sellers quite like elbow grease.
Good housekeeping, home repair, spaciousness and even pleasant aromas can help bring top dollar and fast sales.
On the flip side, a dirty unkempt house with deferred maintenance and bad odors can slow the process and lessen the value.
I am not suggesting that anyone do a complete a remodel, but remember what they say; the little things mean a lot.
Removing clutter from a room opens up the area and can give the illusion of spaciousness. Most buyers cannot visualize, therefore if they see your home as cluttered and messy they will believe that it is not big enough for them.
Next week we will begin with the first impression your home makes, the appearance from the curb.
Happy house hunting.....Frank
