I have to go way back in my memory bank to remember when I sold a property on a dark and dreary day. Sunshine really is my secret selling weapon! I admit we Californians are spoiled when it comes weather--we expect lots of sunshine accompanied by balmy temperatures. Showing property in the rain is a foreign concept in this southern region of the Golden State. We like our houses illuminated by the natural glow of the sun.
Light enhances not only the interior of a dwelling, but also the mood of the house hunting team--buyers and agents. Showing a house on a dark and dreary day presents definite challenges; I've never had a buyer tell me they want a dark house. Showing property with a team member is an excellent way to overcome dark interiors. Two showing agents allows one agent to move quickly through the house turning on lights and opening drapes. The other agent is free to stay with the prospective buyers, pointing out features and answering questions as they arise. Ditto for turning off lights and locking up.
With a little teamwork and lots of light, whether natural or artificial, we increase the odds of a buyer walking out with a favorable opinion of the property and in the mood to write an offer if the property is a good fit.
