5 ways to get your Home Ready For The Spring Buying Season

Written by Posted On Thursday, 12 February 2015 16:21

 

1- Spring Cleaning

Cleaning the house before it goes on the market is one of the most essential tasks you can do.I Recommend you get the Windex out, wash curtain sheers , shampoo rugs, dust the shelves and make sure the beds in the house are made. Counters, sinks, tubs, and appliances should be cleaned as well.

 

2- Curb Appeal

Springtime is a time of a fresh beginning and new life and this is exactly what you want your house to portray. Rejuvenate your landscaping with fresh mulch, a bright and manicured lawn and colorful and lively flowers. Be sure to also clean the exterior of your home including windows, doors and even the driveway

 

3. De-clutter.

Clean out your closets, bookshelves, and send things like old possessions  to storage .

 


4. Go to  open houses in your area.

Home sellers should go to open houses in their area that are in the same the same price range to see what they're up against.   When you go through the homes, sellers should take notes on the positives and negatives of the home.

 


5.  Do necessary repairs

Have a faucet that continually drips? Is your toilet not flushing as well as it should? It is advisable that you fix any of these issues before listing your home. As buyers tour your home, if they notice issues like these it sends a message that the house hasn't been cared for.Replace missing tiles, fix torn screens, touch up holes or cracks in walls. Replace cracked windowpanes and moldings. Making repairs like these won’t cost much, yet they will have a huge impact on a buyer’s impression of your home.
