Home Staging Thursdays : Some TLC

Don't hide anything that needs a bit of TLC. Reveal, never conceal, and be sure to reflect any deficiencies and necessary repairs in the list price. If possible and if you can afford it make the necessary fixes. It will only help sell the property faster.
 
Some buyers do not want to invest in a home that has work to be done. They connect better with homes that are ‘move-in ready’. Anything less is inviting a reduction from the home’s asking price.

Here are some areas to consider:
· Replace cracked floor/tiles or counter tiles.
· Patch holes or nicks in walls or baseboards.
· Fix chips in the paint.
· Fix leaky faucets.
· Fix doors or windows that don't close properly and kitchen drawers that jam.
· Replace burned-out light bulbs.
 
It’s the little details that are important here.

Tip 5:
"Pets”
You love your pet, he’s cute and cuddly and so loving…man’s best friends… so everyone else will love your pet as well, right?
Wrong!
While you may feel your pet is part of the family, some potential buyers are really averse to animals of any kind. Barking dogs can be distracting, and water or food bowls are unappealing. Therefore any evidence of pets will deter them from the property. Your best friend may even have an odor that only you can be pleased with. If you have pets, vacuum daily to keep the hair under control and crate them or remove them from the home while it is being shown. In short, you want to remove all signs that a pet was living in the home.

Keep Your Grass Green

Hello All,

If you're like me, we all want the greenest grass on the block. Unfortunately, if you are short of time and get busy with other things easily, watering your grass can be a forgotten task.

Since installing my irrigation system, I have saved time and money plus my grass looks thicker, greener and healthier.

I had my system installed by a professional who uses industrial fittings and valves -the ones at the big box stores are just not powerful enough to handle the pressure.

If you're interested in getting a quote, call my irrigigation system installer. See contact information below.

Home Staging Thursdays: Make Your Home Sparkle

"Clean!”
 
It may be common sense to some, but the best way to maintain the value of your home is to follow a regular cleaning schedule. When your house is on the market, it has to be clean and ready for showing every minute of the day.
 
So don’t forget to make the house sparkle!

Here are a few areas to pay attention to:
· Windows; inside and out
· Sidewalks and exterior
· Polish faucets and mirrors
· Clean out the refrigerator and stove
· Vacuum daily
· Wash floors
· Dust furniture daily
· Kitchen/Bathroom counter tops and sinks
· Wash toilets/tubs/showers
 
Also think about hiring a professional cleaning service to come in and deep clean everything…it can be an investment worth the extra couple of dollars.
