Today, we will discuss the five most important things you can do to get your house sold.
First, the most important thing you can do is paint your house, inside and out. Fresh paint is worth every penny. Neutral grays and neutral blues are very popular right now. I recommend Sherwin Williams' Intellectual Gray or Network Gray.
The second most important thing is flooring. If you've been in a home for 20 years and still have the original carpet, then you need to upgrade.
Next, update your light fixtures. This is an inexpensive update, but just make sure that you're consistent throughout. Don't use compact fluorescents; the lighting will not display your home well.
The fourth thing to do is clean! Get the baseboards, windows, and behind the blinds. Do a deep cleaning of the whole house.
Finally, hire the right agent. We're not all alike. About 90% of the real estate out there is sold by the top 10% of agents, and we were ranked in the top 10% last year. Make sure you have an agent who will market your home correctly.
If you have any questions about preparing your home for the market, give us a call or send us an email. We'd be happy to offer any suggestions to sell your home quickly and for top dollar.
