Curb Appeal, either you have or you don't in Pensacola, Florida.

Exhibit the Exterior

As a current buyer myself, curb appeal is what gets me in the door. Price is king but if it doesn't match what I see at the curb it won't get me out of the car.

Working with 4 buyers agents on my team, this is the most important concern or all buyers. I hear it time and time again, "if that is the way the yard looks what have they not maintained in the home".

Hi Charles...You can make a first impression only once and that goes for houses too.  Curb appeal matters, significantly.

If you are a seller and don't think curb appeal is important, let me assure you that you are wrong. I've had buyers who have pulled up in front of a house and didn't even want to go inside because of how the front of the house looked. I'm sure the inside looked amazing, but the 1st impression was... Lets get out of here and quickly!
