PRESENTATION TIPS
Here are a few simple
tips that will help you present your home in its best light. Remember,
you only have one chance to make a great first impression.
• Move excess
furniture like footstools, extra tables and extra chairs to a storage
unit to clear out clutter and make rooms look bigger.
• Store all toys and keep your house clean and clutter-free.
• Have a yard sale to sell anything you no longer want or need,
or donate you items to local charities (tax deductible).
• Clean carpets, drapes and even furniture, if needed.
• If repainting, replacing carpets or redecorating try to use neutral
colors (beige, camel, light gray, etc).
• Add a fresh coat of paint (neutral shade) in interior walls.
• Replace carpets if worn out or outdated.
• Fix anything obvious on the outside of your home.
• Inspect you home thoroughly and either repair large problems such
a faulty roof or broken appliances, or adjust you price and / or negotiate
terms accordingly.
• Keep your lawn, shrubs and plants neatly trimmed to maximize your
“curb appeal”.
• Get a new mailbox or new house numbers to further enhance curb
appeal.
• Add color to the outside of your home by planting flowers, hanging
flowering baskets and adding a coat of fresh paint to shutters.
• Repaint front door; polish brass knocker and kickplate to make
your entryway shine.
• Clean garage of clutter and sweep out thoroughly.
• Clear off the back deck or patio to make it look larger and more
relaxing.
• On the day of a showing, bake cookies or bread and make a fresh
pot of coffee. These comforting aromas can help make a house seem like
a home.
• Gardening equipment and tools should be put away.
• Park you car in the garage or on the street to leave the driveway
open.
• Check all rooms for safety hazards. All extension cords should
be out of sight. Remove all potentially slippery throw rugs.
• If your kitchen cabinets are not up to date, sometimes just changing
the hardware (knobs/handles) can be a dramatic improvement.
• A new shower curtain for all bathrooms is a very good idea. Streaky
old shower curtains are a real turnoff.
• Turn all the lights on when your house is shown.
• Flowers are an effective way to spark up a room.
