“YOU HAVE BUT ONE CHANCE TO CREATE A GOOD FIRST IMPRESSION”

  • Let the sun shine in – Light and bright are important! Open drapes, blinds and shutters; operable light bulbs are essential; have lamps on at all times for the warm glow; porch lights and lamps on in the evening are great for prospects canvassing neighborhoods.

  • I love the flower girl – Fresh, potted with blooms or a bud vase with single stem create a positive effect and an immediately catch the eye. 

  • Fruit of the Spirit – What is it about a bowl of fruit that gives your home a welcoming feel? A bowl of lemons or limes can create an aura of going the extra mile for your prospective purchaser. 

  • Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast –  Classical Rules! Not too loud, too twangy or too reverberating. 

  • On the street where you live – Curb appeal is a must! Invest on the outside to create a showing inside!

  • Freshly-mowed lawn, manicured flowerbeds, shiny front door with fresh doormat and at least one pot of flowers, crisp street numbers, clean shutters and windows are a ticket to success of your sale.

  • The handyman can – Repair anything that might suggest a drip, leak or crack…corroded faucets can be replaced inexpensively; updated fixtures, faucets, lighting suggest a well-maintained home.

  • Clean, clean and clean again!  You hear the term “move-in ready” –  Vacuum yourself out the door it will be worth it! 

  • “It’s about breaking through the CLUTTER” – Aren’t you moving? Why not have the garage sale before you begin marketing your home? Clear off refrigerator door, organize family photos (it’s about the house, not the people); exercise the clean-closet rule-must see lots of floor space with neatly-arranged shoes ( if they are dusty, you’re not using them-have another sale); remove empty hangers-space the rest; REMEMBER, buyers are looking for more storage than they now have; ditto the pantry, hall closet, broom closet, bedrooms closets, garage closet, ALL closets, drawers and cabinets!

  • “The Song of the Rose is heard with the Nose” – All aromas are not created equally…pet smells are unappealing, smoking in the home is a no-no, candles and room sprays need to be used with caution, clean and fresh fragrances are appealing, but overly-scented ones are not.
