Spring has sprung, and you know what that means. If you’re looking to capitalize on this hot real estate market, Now is the perfect time to get your home on the market.
Not sure where to start? Here are a few tips from Milton’s #1 real estate team on how to get your home ready for sale:
A new paint job can transform the look and feel of your home. It’s the easiest way to hide all those marks, spots, and blemishes. However, avoid using dominant colors and stick to neutral colors that fit with modern design trends like light greys or whites. This will make your home more attractive to buyers as it makes it easier for them to update the colors if needed.
Clients working with our team have the opportunity to work with a professional stager who assists with selecting the best colour for showcasing the interior of your home. The stager will also make suggestion for furniture placement and how to best showcase the home to potential buyers
Springtime is all about beautiful weather and the promise of summer. Create a picturesque piece of paradise that makes it easy for buyers to envision summer barbeques, space for the kids, and a place to truly relax and call home.
Spend some time cleaning up and mowing your lawn, preparing and planting your flower beds, tidying up walkways, and removing clutter to improve your home’s curbside appeal. And most importantly, make sure to clean up any of Fido’s surprises in the yard.
Every home has a few neglected areas. Take the time to dust light fixtures and blinds, shine up door knobs, wash your walls, clean your carpets, deep clean your bathtub and sink, sweep behind the stove, declutter countertops and your refrigerator, and any other areas buyers may look.
Clean windows go a long way to improving the attractiveness of your home. Wipe down interior glass panels to remove stains, wipe dust away from the edges, and finish it off by using a squeegee to clean the exterior glass.
Although we all love our pets, buyer’s may not share the same enthusiasm. Deep clean and deodorize the areas where your pets like to relax. Don’t try to cover the smells with strong scents as that may turn off for potential buyers.
Make sure your front door is perfect. First impressions are everything, and your front door plays an important role in the first time potential buyers visit your home. Make a powerful first impression by refreshing your front door’s paint, tidying up the entryway, and making it easy for buyers to fall in love with your home.
A quick power wash for your siding and driveway can remove years of dirt, dust, and debris. Best of all? You can rent a power washer from your local hardware store, so there’s no need to purchase one.
Maintenance is an inevitable part of homeownership. The more you know about the age of your windows, roof, furnace, and other essential components, the less power a buyer has over you during negotiations. Make sure you communicate any recent renovations and repairs you’ve completed.
Sunlight is one of the best ways to make your home look warm, welcoming, and bigger. When combined with lighter paint tones, you can boost the look and feel of your home.
