Let That Holiday Cheer Help You Sell Your Charlotte Home This Month
Ahh, a cozy fire, the smell of freshly cut pine trees and a plate of warm molasses cookies may just be all it takes for buyers to envision themselves celebrating THEIR holidays in your Charlotte home! So take the time this season to channel Mrs. Claus and cheerfully enhance your house for the holidays with these festive tips:
Don’t Neglect the Winter Curb Appeal – Remember that the first impression for buyers is VERY important in the home selling process. In the dead of winter, yards can look barren and bleak but, no need to add to the seasonal depression. Be sure to rake fallen leaves and clear dead flowers from their beds or pots. Utilize fresh seasonal annuals such as Pansies. With darkness settling in so early, don’t forget to turn on both indoor and outdoor lights to give your Charlotte home a cozy glow.- Tastefully Deck the Halls – While you want to remind some buyers of their yearly traditions, you don’t want to offend others. So, if you typically go overboard with holiday decorations, tone it down a little this year and go for a winter nature theme — think pinecones, snowflakes and the smell of cinnamon or molasses.
- Host a Holiday Open House – With your house in the season’s spirit, it’s the perfect time to have interested buyers walking through. Offer fresh baked cookies and apple cider to seal the deal!
- Be Flexible with Showings – Put in a little extra effort to keep your home clean so that buyers can drop in anytime. Property purchasers looking at this busy time of year will be seriously interested — you may just be one of the few homes open to them.
By adding a little holiday cheer to your Charlotte home, you could remind potential buyers of happy memories and put them in the giving — or hopefully, buying — spirit.
