Does a Vampire live here? asked the home buyers child as the curtains were all closed and every light off. It was a good question for a kid but the buyers question of "How do they expect us to see anything?" was better. Today is day 8 of 10 in my blog series of the "Top 10 tips" for home owners selling their homes.
#8. What position should my curtains be in and should lights be on or off? When a buyer walks into your home, you want it to be light and bright. The curtain should open, the sun pouring in. For late afternoon or evening showings, all the lights should be on. Make sure there is not any burnt out bulbs. Buyers do not want gloomy.
Here in the Manchester NH area, one of my first conversations when listing a home is what to expect for showings. Yes, the home needs to be kept ready for showings at short notice. Yes, it takes work, but the pay off can be a quicker home sale.
