The Front Door Steals the Show...
One of the fastest ways to sell your home, is to make sure your
"Front Door Steals The Show".
Joyce Marsh Interior Designer and Luxury Real Estate Specialist recommends that before you put up a For Sale Sign, there are steps you should take to make sure that your home has that special ingredient known as "curb appeal".
Most home buyers will do a "drive-by" before they actualy schedule a showing. This means that they are taking a looksy at your home and if it doesn't look good, the interest stops right there.
You only have one chance to make a great impression, and when you have your home on the market, this is even more true.
- Take a walk around your neighborhood to see how your home looks from "the street view". Take a look at your home from all different angles.
- Photograph your home and print the photos. It will be easier to see the problem areas.
- Highlight the items that need attention and should be taken care of prior to listing your home.
Make an impact with your Front Door...
There is one change that can make a huge difference and has immediate impact and that is by painting the front door of your home. Have you ever noticed that you are drawn to homes with beautiful front doors, or doors with a "stand-out" color? Consider painting a striking color such as the doors in the photo above.
Then take it a step further and enhance the landscaping around the front entry and coordinate all of the colors with some fresh flower plantings.
All of these ideas will make your home stand out and be the star of the neighborhood.
