It is NOT just business...It's PERSONAL!!!
 
  • Everything from floors to windows must be spotless.
  • Remember to clean the oven and other major appliances.
  • Skylights should be crystal-clear, too.
  • Do not forget to make bathrooms shine!
  • Kill any odors. They're the first thing buyers notice, and often a permanent turnoff.

 

Remove the Clutter

  • Put away small kitchen appliances and other items that are sitting on countertops and tables.
  • Remove photographs from table-tops.
  • Organize the closets.
  • If there's not a reason to leave something sitting around--remove it!

 

Outside Tasks

  • Buyers nearly always comment if gutters are full of leaves and it makes them question other maintenance issues.
  • Store or organize items that make the yard look messy.
  • Make your front entry inviting. Decorate it, paint the door or buy a new door. It's the first look a buyer has when he steps up to enter.

 

Make Necessary Improvements

  • Replace old and/or stained carpet.
  • Put a fresh coat of neutral paint on the walls.
  • If lighting is an issue, add or update fixtures with high wattage bulbs.
  • Add tile to your bathrooms and kitchen.
