Let the Sun Shine In |
| Open draperies and curtains and let the prospect see how cheerful your house can be. (Dark rooms are not appealing). |
 |
Repairs Can Make a Big Difference |
| Loose knobs, sticking and squeaking doors and windows, warped cabinet drawers, leaking faucets and other minor flaws detract from house value. Have them fixed. Many buyers believe there will be ten problems they haven’t noticed for every one they do see. |
 |
Safety First |
| Keep stairways clear. Avoid cluttered appearances and possible injuries. |
 |
Make Closets Look Bigger |
| Neat, well-ordered closets show that the space is ample. |
 |
Bathrooms Help Sell Homes |
| Check and repair caulking in bathtubs and showers. Make this room sparkle! Clean shower/tub enclosures thoroughly to remove hard water stains, etc… |
 |
Arrange Bedrooms Neatly |
| Remove excess furniture. Use attractive bedspreads and freshly cleaned curtains. |
 |
Harmonize the Elements |
| FM radio or stereo on softly, TV off. All lights on, day or night. Drapes open in the daytime, closed at night. If it’s hot, cool it; if it’s cold, light a crackling fire. |
 |
You Can Sell Pride of Ownership Faster & For More Money |
| It’s called cleanliness, and cleanliness attracts more buyers than used dirt. Put sparkle in your bathrooms and kitchen, and you’ll take lots more money out with you. |
 |
Play on Buyer’s Smell |
