A Few Tips on Selling Your Home This Summer.

Make your outdoor space look like an indoor space. Clean, repair, and paint your deck. Make sure your porch has an inviting seating area. Your patio should have at minimum a table, umbrella, and chairs. If you have outdoor kitchens make certain it is free of grease and debris. If you are lacking a patio or deck then strategically arrange outdoor furniture to create an outdoor room.

If you have a pool make it the center piece of the yard. During the summer a pool can be a powerful selling point. Keep the water clear every day. Potential Buyers can visualize themselves relaxing in the pool on a hot summer day.

Invest in curb appeal. Place colorful potted plants near the entrance way. Keep the lawn fresh, neat, and trim. Don’t forget to water. The best time for lawns is early morning hours. Stay away from watering lawns after 6 PM.

Keep the house cool. Prospective Buyers will enjoy touring your home while escaping from the summer heat.

Provide refreshments. Leave a pitcher of lemonade on the kitchen counter with a note card inviting prospective buyers to help themselves.

These tips will give your home extra buyer appeal on warm summer days.
