You are eager to sell your house and get out of it. It is time to consider how you can make it more appealing. The sex appeal will help you attract buyers and will aid you in acquiring a higher price.
The most asked for feature in houses from potential buyers is more space. Sellers who live in their home while selling it make the mistake of not clearing out their closets, storage, and garage to prepare for the presentation of their home for sale. Buyers look and feel that it is too cluttered and that there is inadequate space.
Replace any bulb that is under wattage, clean domes, fix switches and fixtures, and clean or repair anything else inside or outside that you think a buyer might look directly at or touch. If the lighting is bad or a bulb is missing, it sends the message that you do not care for the house. This will make them think there are many more serious problems that have gone unattended, whether it is true or not.
Repair your floors and polish them. Paint your walls and they will pay more for the house. Clean your windows inside and out. Finally, steam clean any carpets to get them fresh smelling.
Outside you should mow and trim your lawn. Weed the flower beds. Prune the trees. Paint the outside of the house. Clean the driveways with a pressure washer. Repair any holes or chips in the driveway or sidewalk.
If you put in the effort to make a perfect presentation, it will pay off in higher dividends in the end.
