"NAME THAT HOME"

Home Sellers Beware!  Many home buyers and real estate agents as they are looking at homes have a tendenacy to "NAME THAT HOME". This is usually not done to be negative about your home, but just a way to remember which one it was when they are trying to narrow their selections, however many names are NEGATIVE. "NASTY BATHROOM", "SMELLED LIKE PETS", "CREAKY FANS", "SOILED CARPETS", "DARK AND DINGY", you get the message.

So, why not use this to your advantage. How you ask, how about making sure that it is "NEAT AS A PIN" for the showing, the "UNCLUTTERED KITCHEN" maximize available counter space, "ROOMY CLOSETS" remove out of season clothing and shoes, "BRIGHT AND CHEERY" lighten up, open blinds, drapes, repaint any room beginning to look shabby, "INVITING ENTRY", clean or repaint that front door and sweep that porch often, its the first thing the buyers see, "NEATEST GARAGE EVER" discard virtually everything in the garage that hasn't been used for years and make use you can put your cars in it, "MANACURED YARD" trim trees and bushes, mend the fence, plant some flowers.

It's very important that your home shows well. We're also aware that it can't always be perfect. After all, you and your family do live there. Develope a routine that will allow you to pick up and be prepared to show without duress in 45 minutes or less. this means that certain things must be done in advance., beds should be made first thing in the morning, dirty dishes in the dishwasher as you use them, this will help when the call comes to show.

Prepare well for your showings!  Set the stage to make the best impression on each prospective buyer.
