For Quick Sales

 

For quick sales, give a good impression!

When the time comes to sell your property, you only have one chance to make a good impression.

Exterior

How your property is viewed from the outside is very important. An attractive exterior encourages the buyer to visit the interior. Your flower bed should be neat, and in the winter keep photos handy to help the visitor visualize how the yard will look in the summer. Cleanliness is essential: a clear entrance and clean windows will also make all the difference.

Interior

Inside, the key is cleanliness. Clean up and get rid of unnecessary items. Remove old furniture that obstructs passageways or clutters rooms. Clear up the space so that visitors don't feel cramped.

Does the paint need to be refreshed? A newly painted property often sells for more. Also note that dark colors do not promote sales. Instead, opt for light and bright tones. The condition of the carpets can also be a determining factor. If not replacing them, clean them to give them a youthful look.

The kitchen and bathroom must be immaculate. Take the time to clean household appliances and faucets, as well as the tub, toilet and sink. Clear counters and don't leave dishes in the sink or towels on the edge of the tub. Let the buyer see all the storage possibilities.

All over the house, fix leaky faucets, faulty handles, badly closing drawers or cabinet doors, etc. Replace burnt out light bulbs and yellowed hotplates. Most of these small repairs are relatively inexpensive and will positively influence the buyer.

Create an atmosphere

It is essential that your home is well lit. Open the curtains during the day and turn on the lamps at night. If necessary, add lamps in dark corners. Make sure the house is well ventilated. Don't push the buyer away with strong smells, such as incense or spicy foods.

When visiting the buyer, be discreet and leave your broker alone with the client. It will be easier for them to showcase your home, and the customer will feel more free to provide feedback.
