Having your house stand out is an important factor when your homes for sale in St. Augustine are going against the competition. Here are seven tips to improve your selling potential. These tips will aid in a smooth transition from one house to another, as well as helping you sell your home. 

The first tip is to maintain neutrality. You can maintain neutrality with your home by staying away from neon or unusual colored walls or over-decorated rooms. By staying neutral with your homes for sale in St. Augustine, your homebuyers won’t be scared off by an orange colored bathroom or flower inspired room. By using neutral colors, your homebuyers will be able to see your home for the way it is, rather than be distracted by the decorating. The second tip is to remember that less is more. By taking away clutter and extra furniture in your home, it will make the space in your home look and feel bigger. Taking away unneeded furniture can also allow for clearer walkways between rooms. The third tip is be aware of the smells in your homes for sale in St. Augustine. If you have a litter box for your cat, be sure that your homebuyers won’t be able to smell it. Be sure to clean your refrigerator and take the trash out, prior to an open house or homebuyer visit. 

The fourth tip is to look around your home for unfinished details. If you need new nobs on your cabinets or if your kitchen needs a fresh coat of paint, make sure to do these inexpensive renovations. The fifth tip is to spruce up your “curb appeal” for homebuyers. The outside of your homes for sale in St. Augustine is the first piece of your home that homebuyers are going to see. This can be done by cutting your grass cut, weeding your garden and keeping the front door area clear of clutter and debris. The sixth tip is to not keep your home so personal. Although homebuyers know you are still living in your house, they do not need to be reminded of it. Put away your laundry, clothes and clear off the pictures on the fridge. By keeping your homes for sale in St. Augustine less personal, the homebuyer will be able to see exactly what your home has to offer without the extra distractions. 

The seventh and final tip to boost your ability to sell your homes for sale in St. Augustine is to take care of needed repairs. If there are big repairs that need to be fixed, it can drastically hurt your ability to sell your home. Most homebuyers will want these repairs to be fixed before they move in, so it is better to get it done sooner than later. Follow these seven tips when selling your home to enhance your selling ability and get your house sold quickly.
