6. Repairs
Instead of adjusting the home's listing price to compensate for repairs, consider the growing desire for "move-in ready homes".  As cleanliness is perceived to mean "cares for", the presence of easy repairs indicates that a home has been neglected.  The appearance of neglect will reduce the selling price of a … (0 comments)

3. Life in the Home

2. Clear Space / Clutter FreeCommunicating to the buyer how to maximize the home's structure and floorplan is essential in showing a home well.  Unnecessary personal belingings make it more difficult for a buyer to imagine living in the space, making it a home of their own, or simply seeing how … (0 comments)
