SELLING MADE SIMPLE
Get Your Home in Picture-Perfect Condition
There is a reason why the language of real estate sales includes terms like “showing” and “staging.” A home needs to be tidy, clutter-free and camera-ready before
it hits the market. Buying a home is a sensory experience. That’s why a home must look, feel and even smell appealing. The property needs to be well maintained
throughout the sales period since potential buyers can surface at any time. Fixing broken items and refreshing the home helps make the sale happen faster.
Tidy-up & Organize
• Be mindful of pets bowls, cages, & litter boxes
• Remove clutter from all countertops
Curb Appeal
• Steam clean existing carpet, clean tile and grout,
polish hardwood fl oors
• Scrub bathrooms and kitchen
• Dust and polish all furnishings
• Dust or wash blinds; wash or replace window treatments
• Clean all appliances inside and out
• Organize items in boxes and create a separate space for
storage-don’t stuff the clutter in closets
• Consider hiring a cleaning service on a weekly basis
• Air out your home and replace air fi lters
• Pressure wash or freshly paint your home’s exterior
• Clean and align gutters
• Wash windows
• Repair outdoor light fi xtures and replace burned out bulbs
• Reseal driveway and repair walkways and steps
• Freshen landscaping by removing weeds, trimming lawn
and shrubbery and add a splash of color with annuals if
season appropriate
• Replace worn door-mats
