Curb Appeal Checklist

Begin with the exterior of your house, also called your curb appeal. Take a fresh look at the exterior of your house from a quick glance from the street. What jumps out at you? What positive features seem to fade into the background?Acknowledging this helps us to choose what plan of action we can use to draw buyers from the street and into your home. If your home isn't the best it can look on the outside with refreshed paint and blooming greenery we'll need to address those as well. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and boost your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Can buyers see themselves enjoying game night in your living room, relaxing in your spa tub or hosting a dinner in your dining room? I want your home to pleasantly accept buyers and offer them a sense of contentment. I'll help you do this by recommending changes that highlight the features of your home. I'll advise you eliminate pieces that give the appearance of clutter. Tabletops should be clutter-free. Knickknacks, sentimental items, family photos, and refrigerator drawings should get stored away too. I can help you simplify the decor of house. Unsightly or dirty spots make your home look less spacious and buyers have a harder time imagining themselves calling your property "home".

Every room gets a once-over. Changes that directly impact your bottom line include fixable like furniture pieces that should be removed, rooms that need neutral paint, carpet that needs changing, fixtures that need shining, and windows that need washing

I'll make sure your house has mass appeal and that it's friendly, steering clear of "offensive" or "can't-work-with" hues on the walls and furniture. And if the house is vacant, you can consider borrowing furniture. The goal is for your home to look homey as opposed to deserted.

Setting the Stage

You'll know when to host an Open House, because everything comes together to set the stage for what buyers can expect after they choose to buy your house. Brightening up each room is of major importance, so we'll do things like open curtains and change light bulbs where needed to show off your home. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music to listen to while guests enjoy your home and make sure a pleasing scent circulates from every room. We'll include cozy-looking blankets, and place pillows on your couch and bed. We want buyers to feel like your current home is their future home.
