So you’ve decided to sell your home.
It’s on the market along with many other properties. So how do you make your home stand out and become irresistible to as many buyers as possible?
An ordinary home with ordinary features is not going to attract potential buyers’ attention. You need to step up your game and go beyond the ordinary.
Wondering how you can do this? Let me share with you a few ideas that doesn’t require going to serious lengths to make your home stand out from the other homes for sale in Needham MA.
1. Start with the outside
If you want to create a great first impression, make sure to give your exterior a little boost. A fresh coat of paint can go a long way in making your home look better.
You can also add some plants of shrubs or flowers if there’s room. Don’t forget to give the lawn a trim beforehand, cut any overgrown plants and flowers, and pull out any weeds so that your lawn is in pristine condition.
2. Focus on the front door
Whether you like it or not, homebuyers are going to judge a book by its cover. Good thing there is one small detail that you can easily handle that could make all the difference - your front door.
The front door can speak volumes about your home. A tired looking and worn-out front door can put off buyers even before they enter your home. Make sure that the style and color of your front door fit well with the rest of your home.
3. Modernize the kitchen
Have you heard that it’s the kitchen that sells the house? This popular saying is true so make sure your kitchen is updated with a modern look before your list your home.
If the sink and faucets are old, replace them with new ones. And clear everything from countertops except one or two decorative items to make it look presentable. Check if the drains do not leak beneath the sink. You can also freshen up and modernize your cabinets with a fresh coat of paint or stain and new hardware. Lastly, clean and organize the pantry, leaving some empty space to make it appear more spacious.
4. Declutter and store
Clutter is a home’s worst deterrent for homebuyers. It will be hard for people to imagine themselves living in your home if there is clutter everywhere. So before you list your home, get rid of anything broken or beyond repair. You can also hold a garage sale or donate useful items to charity. Clear your home of at least 30 percent of its contents. Pack up some of your smaller décor items and leave out only a few conversation pieces to make it feel lived-in.
