GET RID OF CLUTTER.
Take out stacks of newspapers and magazines. Pack most of your small decorative and personal items. Store out-of-season clothing to make closets appear roomier. Clean out the garage.
WASH WINDOWS AND SCREENS.
This will let in more light and allow clear views.
KEEP EVERYTHING EXTRA CLEAN
. Wash fingerprints from light switch plates. Mop and wax floors. Clean the stove and refrigerator. A clean house makes a better first impression and convinces buyers that the home has been well cared for.
GET RID OF ODORS
. Clean carpeting and drapes to eliminate cooking odors, smoke, and pet smells. Open the windows.
USE HIGHER WATTAGE BULBS
to make rooms brighter, especially basements and dark spaces. Replace burnt-out bulbs.
MAKE MINOR REPAIRS
that can create a bad impression. Small problems such as sticky, squeaky doors, torn screens, cracked caulking, or a dripping faucet seem trivial, but they give buyers the impression that the home isn't well maintained.
TIDY YOUR YARD
. Cut the grass, rake the leaves, trim the bushes, and edge the walks. Put a pot or two of bright flowers near the entryway.
PATCH HOLES
in your driveway and reapply sealant, if applicable.
CLEAN RAIN GUTTERS
.
POLISH
your front doorknob and house numbers.
