The first key to selling your home for top dollar is “curb appeal.” Ask yourself, “would I be interested in a house like mine? Does it look like it’s been kept up?” To a potential buyer, if the outside looks shabby, it could mean the inside has not been taken care of either. However, creating curb appeal does not have to mean spending lots of money.
The easiest improvement you can make is adding colorful flowers, which create a homey fresh look. Trim the bushes, hedges and trees. Remove any unsightly or broken “yard accessories” (old pots, fountains or damaged hoses). Be sure your lawn is not only cut, but is a nice bright green, buyers will take this as a sign you’ve put effort into keeping up your home.
Look for Part II Monday...
