Staging is the Key to Profit
Tips for showing your home to look its best!
Keep the grass mowed and shrubs trimmed
Keep the lawn free of tools, toys and newspapers
Sweep the front walkway
Pick up toys and shoes; make up beds and put clothes away
Tidy up bathrooms and use nice towels
Dust the furniture, prepare tables with flowers or “coffee table” books
Straighten the rugs and empty wastebaskets
Open drapes and shades during the day, at night turn on lights to brighten your home
Open windows to freshen rooms
Turn off the television, play soft background music
Set the thermostat at a comfortable temperature
Keep pets out of the way and make sure their areas are clean and free of odor
Personal Recommendations:
Secure any valuables that you may have as a precaution
Save the business cards of the people who showed your house
If people who are not accompanied by an agent want to see your home, please refer them to us.
It is always best if you can leave while your house is being shown.
The prospective buyers usually feel more freedom to discuss the things they like or dislike about your home.
Their realtor may be able to offer suggestions they are looking for.
Note: If you do have to be home during a showing, discretion is advised. Never discuss personal property, reasons or time frame for selling, financing terms, or the price you may be willing to sell for. These are all key points in negotiating the best possible terms for the sale of your home. Leave the negotiating to the experience of your agent. Let them work for you.
