This is the post 4 of a series of posts about selling your home.
What does it take to sell your home in Sumter? This is a question that I often hear. I like any other agent have had some homes linger on the market to suddenly sell. I have also had homes sell very quickly. The properties that sell have several common threads among them... You have probably heard this before if you have listed a home, watched the shows on tv or read on the internet, but here goes....

What is the properties curb appeal? What makes the potential buyer want to view your home? I was in a closing and the buyers told me they had been watching the home on the internet for 5 months waiting for their time in their current living quarters to pass. What attracted them to the home? First the yard and the outside of the home. The home was a different brick than most homes in the area and it was very eye catching for them. The yard was also landscaped and inviting. What does your property say to potential buyers? No landscaping? Bad landscaping? Is the landscaping maintained? If the first impression of your yard is negative, you can easily set a negative tone for the entire home. The next time you drive up to your house, seriously look at the exterior of your property and think about what a buyer sees.

Kim - great advice ---- to look at your house as if you were seeing it for the first time -- although, I will say that is very difficult to do.
