Getting your home ready to sell this Spring!

Time to freshen things up! Here are a few tips on things you can do to give your home a Spring refresh!

Give your home a fresh look and feel with a few coats of paint and some new fixtures. There is nothing more impactful than fresh paint and trust us, a little goes a long way here! Feel free to reach out to us before painting, we have some great recommendations. It’s best to keep things neutral, in style with the home, and the right sheen.

Let’s talk curb appeal! Experts say that it takes between 5-15 seconds for someone to form a first impression. Before even getting to the front door, your home is being sized up from the street. A good lawn, fresh flowers, and maintained landscaping will for sure pass the first impression test. Don’t forget a fresh porch rug and door wreath.

Eliminate the turn-offs. You may want to think about fixing those minor issues such as broken door handles, those squeaky floorboards, or replacing some flooring. Doing a few little things will impact how your home is viewed and ultimately bring you more buyers and better terms. We can help walk you through what to focus on and where to start!

Declutter & de-personalize. This one is a big one and a must-do above all others! We love the keepsakes, your wedding photo, and the shrine of children’s photos down the hall, but we need the buyers to be able to imagine their families living there, we need them to emotionally connect to the home.

Why stop there… let’s take it to the next level! Staging is essential in many ways but the better a home presents, the more perceived value it has, which typically makes it sell faster and for more money. Staging addresses many potential buyer objections, such as wall colors that are too specific, tricky floor plans, or worn and outdated finishes. There is no price point that staging doesn’t work and no price point that doesn’t want more money. Reach out to us for any recommendations or to get some guidance or ideas for your spring refresh!
