How is the entry door? Should it be changed or painted? Having a front door that stands out in a positive way can have a dramatic effect on the entire house. If there is a screen door or storm door, what kind of shape is it in? If it doesn't look good it should be replaced.
How is the landscaping? If the yard is overgrown, you should get rid of as much as needed to have the yard looking neat. The front of the house should not be concealed by trees and shrubs; a well cared for front yard says a lot about the house.
The back yard should also be in good shape. While it may not be as important as the front yard in terms of curb appeal, it needs to look good. Debris and clutter should be removed from the back yard and the landscaping should look well cared for. A backyard rarely sells a house, but a yard in poor shape can hurt your chances of making a sale.
