One of the biggest tips I offer to Summit NJ Real Estate sellers is to have their home properly decorated before they put it on the market. The visual appeal of a home is everything, and depending upon what season you sell your home in, these tips may help to cut the waiting time in half.
Winter
- Homes tend to be darker in the winter months because the sky is often cloudier. Brighten your home by hanging well-framed mirrors in darker corners to help with light reflection.
- Try hanging framed art in the dead spots in your home to give it a bright, warm feel.
- If it's the holiday season, ensure that you haven't cluttered areas with unnecessary holiday decorations.
Spring
- Consider adding fresh flowers to areas of your Summit NJ real estate.
- Replace curtains that are beginning to show wear, and be sure to open curtains to let the light in as often as possible.
- Replace your winter welcome mat with something a bit lighter.
- If you have patio furniture, now is the time to get it out and give it a thorough cleaning before adding it to the look of your home. If your cushions show signs of wear, be sure to replace them.
Summer
- Consider changing your heavier curtains in your Summit NJ real estate to lighter weight sheers to catch the light and the breeze.
- If your walls are painted or papered in heavy, dark colors, consider brighter colors.
- Add flowers to your landscaping plan.
- Visit a farmer's market to find the best fresh centerpieces and other potted plants for every room of your home.
Fall
- Begin trimming the summer growth back in your garden areas of your Summit NJ real estate property.
- Find fresh potpourri in fall scents to add to various rooms in your home.
- If winter holiday decorations will make a room feel cluttered with the current furniture arrangement, consider working out a new plan now.
