You have spent years making your house a home. Time, effort, and money has gone into personalizing your property and making it unique.

Now when it’s time for you to sell you want to put together the best presentation you can.

A major renovation or completely changing your home is not necessary to be fully prepared for selling. Sometimes just a few adjustments and attention to detail can make all the difference. Here are a few ways you can improve the appearance of your home and appeal to potential buyers.

Declutter and Clean  

A dirty and cluttered house says a lot about the owner. Take the necessary time to make your home immaculate and those who come to see it will be impressed. Windows, appliances, fan blades, do not overlook even the smallest things.

A house that is filled with clutter doesn’t allow potential buyers to dream. They want to imagine where they would put a couch or bed and personalize it in their own way. Leave space for these dreams to grow in their mind when you are decluttering your house. Move pieces of furniture that can be perceived as making the space cramped.

Be sure not to create too much space as this could leave your home feeling empty and not as welcoming. Properly stage your house to highlight the endearing portions of it. Bring people into your home with as much warmth and care as possible. It can make all the difference when you are selling.

Paint With Neutral Colors

 Keeping the focus more on the rooms in your house rather than the color of the walls is incredibly important. That way buyers won’t be distracted by the particular style you have. Instead these simple yet elegant colors will enable you to clear distractions from those viewing your home.

Simple neutral colors like tans and white are what you should shoot for. They will complement any decor you currently have without taking away from your key selling points.

Also, consider white trim as a way of making your walls pop. This will nicely accent the neutral or existing colors on your walls while giving it a unique flare. This could turn into a DIY project that you and your spouse take on or, a quick call to a professional to help you out.

Repairs and curb appeal

Once you have the inside taken care of do not forget the outside!

The first thing new buyers will see is the exterior of your home. If you can nail the first impression here you are off to an amazing start. Take care of your trees, bushes, and flower garden. Add some potted plants at the entrance to welcome everyone in.

 Any little issues like chipped paint or dirty siding can quickly be fixed. This doesn’t mean you have to completely change everything about the outside of your home. Instead you are creating an atmosphere to draw potential buyers . This will create a strong positive appeal that people can notice before they even step inside your home.
