When you are ready to sell, you'll want to maximize the emotional appeal of your home. People who are enchanted with your home upon walking in the door are more likely to buy, and at a fair price.
Here are some tips to enhance the emotional appeal of your home:
* Turn on the lights to create a warm glow and remove the shadows.
* Make sure the windows are clean, and open the curtains or blinds.
* Keep the kitchen and baths clean and sparkling. Don't leave dishes in the sink.
* Remove all clutter, make the beds, and pick up toys.
* Pack away items that may detract from a buyer's ability to mentally move into your home such as family pictures or teen posters
.* Make the closets look bigger by packing up the clothes you are not using.
* Create a relaxing atmosphere with soft music.
* Make people feel at home with homey scents such as freshly baked cookies or bread or good potpourri.
* Check for pet odors and keep pets safely out of the way when your house is being shown.
* Clean out your basement and garage and neatly stack boxes you have stored there.
* Add charm and appeal with fresh flowers and plants.
Set the stage to show your home to its best advantage. Please don't hesitate to contact The Davidson Team if you have any questions, or would like some professional tips on preparing your home for sale.
