The first day of spring is six weeks away whether the groundhog sees his shadow or not. If you are thinking about putting your home on the market or have been on the market, you have 30-days to get ready for the Real Estate Spring Selling Season.
Begin your spring cleaning outside before moving indoors. Stand back or stand across the street and give your home a critical eye. First impressions occur in home selling just like they do in meeting people. The first outward appearance can make or lose a sale.
Since you are working outside, work from top to bottom, first checking the roof for any needed repairs, get leaves out of valleys and gutters. Check the outside walls for grime and consider power washing the walls and paint where needed.
Clean windows inside and out and make them shine. If you have double panes that have broken seams that are fogged, replace them now. Get leaves out of the yard, trim limbs where needed and top off any hedges. To complete the yard, pull weeds, power wash sidewalks, porches, or decks, and mow if necessary. Check the fence for boards that need replacing, repairing or painting. A white board fence can easily be washed to make it appear almost new. Last of all, don’t forget your garage. Clean, organize, or donate excess to give the appearance of a lot of space. Many garages are used as storage areas instead of parking for vehicles. Hang shelves if necessary, bring in a small storage building, or rent a storage unit in your neighborhood to empty the garage of clutter.
The first showing may be your only chance to make a good first impression. Hope this helps! Sherman D. Durst
