2019 is a Great Year to Sell Your Real Estate!
Home equity is at all-time highs, which makes now the perfect time to sell and get more cash at the close table.
These are the top 5 professional guidelines we discuss with our clients:
1. Clear the Clutter
Crammed closets and overfilled garages can give buyers the impression your property is short on space. Declutter to accentuate the storage possibilities buyers get excited about making your home theirs. Buyers love to open cabinets, closets, and drawers. Clear those spaces, too.
2. Maximize the Possibilities
A potential home should be a blank slate — space buyers can imagine making their own. Keep personal items to a minimum and aim for a neutral look. Set the dinner table so buyers can visualize coming home after a long day.
3. Brighten it up
Expose as much natural light as possible. For darker or interior rooms, use high-wattage bulbs in light fixtures. White flat paint can brighten dark rooms lacking natural light.
4. Rearrange the furniture
Can people move around without bumping into furniture? Does the layout invite guests to sit down and relax? To invite conversation, create spaces where people can connect and easily move around. Less is more.
5. Crank up the Curb Appeal
Exteriors make a critical first impression. Ace yours by repainting your entry door and polishing the door handle. Potted plants on patios or balconies also make the outside of your home feel welcoming.
