Getting Ready To Sell Your Home in Enfield Connecticut
Getting ready to sell your home in Enfield Connecticut.
Spring is just around the corner. That is good news in my opinion. Have you have been thinking about buying a new home this year? Maybe when you put away the holiday decorations they just didn't fit any more, maybe your family has grown in the past year and you just need more space, maybe your kids have moved out now and you would like a smaller easier to take care of house. These are all great reasons to look at selling your house and buying a new one.

Preparing your home for sale does not have to be expensive or painful. You need to start with a plan and organize what needs to be done. You need to figure out how much time and money you will need to get the job done.
Here are some helpful hints:
1. MAXIMIZE CURB APPEAL
Be aware of the first impression your home makes when a buyer walks through the door. Positive first impressions often create immediate sales. Take a good look at your home and catalog all the repairs and cleaning that need to be done before you show your home.
Start on the outside. Take a look at your home from the street, that's where the buyers first impressions are made. Does your home look inviting and tidy, neat and clean.
2. GETTING READY TO SHOW
A fresh coat of paint, especially in neutral colors, goes a long way. Painting or wallpapering over freshly painted walls seems less of a chore to a buyer.
Kitchen and bathroom walls, ceilings and floors should be clean, bright and uncluttered.
Before every showing, make a detailed inspection of your home and maximize its appeal to the buyer.
Most serious buyers will want to see every room, closet and space in your home. Make it easy for them to see everything clearly and with adequate natural or arteficial light.
Have technical information about the age, size and capacity of the heating, cooling and hot water systems, your annual fuel and utility bills, age and general condition of the appliances and roofing. Serious buyers need these facts, especially cost items when figuring out what they will be able to afford.
