Getting the most for your home

-->
First impressions count in real estate! To get a better idea what kind of face your home presents to a potential buyer, walk outside and up to your front door.  How does the front of your home look? Is your front yard neat and tidy? Are your gutters and paint in tip-top shape?
This objective look at your home can let you “see” it through the eyes of buyers. If your home makes a positive first impression a buyer will immediately be drawn in and want to know more. Visual appearance can make the difference between attracting big traffic—or feeling like you’re in a ghost town.
Buyers’ interest will increase when they see an attractive yard and tidy landscaping. Garbage of any kind is a no-no, as are parked cars, RVs, boats, and piles of “stuff” that can ward off all but the most resolute buyers. Trimming your trees and shrubs will allow for a better view from the street, and of course, mowing the lawn and sweeping the entryway will help to make an impact as well.
Simply paying attention to small details like these will help you market your home for top dollar. We can help you discover even more proven techniques to get your home noticed and get you the results you want. Please give us a call or send us an e-mail if you’d like to learn more about how we can help you move your home.
