Find your heart... at home!

Preparing your home for sale can be a difficult task. The objective is to highlight your home's distinctive qualities and attract potential buyers.

I will…

• Evaluate your property
• Provide a selling price that reflects the market
• Perform a Comparative Market Analysis and demonstrate what the “buying public” paid for homes comparable to yours.
• Advertise on MLS, the most current method. A service that allows prospective buyers’ to view your home 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
• Provide a “Photo Tour” of your home
• Keep you informed
• Present ALL offers
• Demonstrate ways to make your home “Saleable”
  

Allow me to demonstrate a few simple & inexpensive things you can do to make your home saleable.

Curb Appeal is the invitation for prospective buyers! So it is extremely important to make a positive first impression.

• Cut grass regularly
• Cut back any trees that are protruding on your neighbors property
• Keep flowerbeds and lawn weed-free
• Rake leaves
• Power spray the exterior of the house & garage
• Apply a fresh coat of paint to the fence & deck
• During the winter months, keep walkways clear
• Remove snow from widow ledges
  

Interior

• Create a warm & inviting ambiance
• Remove unnecessary furniture and knick-knacks to create a spacious living area
• Wash walls, carpets, windows, window coverings, light fixtures and vents throughout the house.
• Replace current bulbs in all light fixtures with new bulbs. You want buyers to see your home in the best possible light.
• Organize closets & cupboards. Keep only the necessary items required for the present time; as buyers are interested in the available storage space.
• Maintain a regular cleaning schedule! A clean house is especially appealing & essential to the sale of your home.
• Have your local natural gas company perform a free “energy evaluation” of the furnace.
• Fix any dripping taps or running toilets
• Locate Warranty and Instruction booklets for all appliances.
• Gather all receipts related to the repairs & upgrades that have been performed.
  

Research has shown that a clean well maintained home appeals to buyers because if the surface is maintained, it is likely that what is out of sight has also been maintained!

Please feel free to use the above checklist as a guideline when preparing to list. By following these simple guidelines, you may increase your return and sell your home faster!
