Things to consider when listing your home

1. Deep Clean Everything

• Go beyond surface cleaning—think carpets, windows, grout, and appliances.
• A spotless home signals that it’s well-maintained.

2. Neutralize Colors

• Bold paint colors can turn buyers away. Consider repainting walls in neutral tones like beige, gray, or soft white.

3. Stage Key Rooms

• Arrange furniture to maximize space and flow.
• Add small touches like fresh flowers or cozy throws to make rooms inviting.

4. Maximize Lighting

• Open curtains and blinds to let in natural light.
• Replace dim bulbs with brighter ones for a warm, welcoming feel.

5. Highlight Storage

• Organize closets and cabinets to show off storage space.
• Buyers love homes that feel spacious and uncluttered.

6. Check Odors

• Remove pet smells, smoke, or strong cooking odors.
• A fresh scent can make a big difference in first impressions.

🌿 Landscaping

• Trim bushes, trees, and hedges.
• Add fresh mulch to flower beds.
• Plant seasonal flowers for a pop of color.

🏡 Exterior Maintenance

• Power wash siding, driveway, and walkways.
• Clean gutters and downspouts.
• Touch up peeling paint on trim or shutters.

🚪 Front Door & Entryway

• Repaint or replace the front door for a fresh look.
• Add a stylish doormat and potted plants.
• Upgrade house numbers and mailbox for a modern touch.

💡 Lighting

• Replace old or broken light fixtures.
• Ensure pathways and entry are well-lit for evening showings.

🪑 Outdoor Spaces

• Add cushions or small décor for a welcoming vibe.
