Make A Great First Impression<br />
Will Rogers once said “You never get a second chance to make a first impression”.<br />
Buyers view several properties at a time - they are comparison shoppers!<br />
That means that your home MUST COMPARE FAVOURABLY with the competition!<br />
Buyers need to see value & feel good as soon as they walk UP TO & IN the front door!<br />
We’ll let you know what you may need to do (or not do) to ensure the right features are<br />
highlighted for prospective buyers. We may recommend you stage the property, have<br />
carpets cleaned, have some minor improvements done.<br />
Here are some easy tips to help your home show its best:<br />
Go through your house with ‘buyer’s eyes’! Put your best foot forward!<br />
• Clear all your countertops.<br />
• Shine all your fixtures (kitchen, bathroom, anything chrome and shiny)<br />
• Put fresh cut flowers on the table in a nice vase; or lemons and oranges in a bowl.<br />
• Put soft background music on (use satellite tv music channels etc.)<br />
• Clean, clean and clean more. Buyers want tidy and clean. It shows pride of<br />
ownership.<br />
• Got a smell? Get rid of it. There’s a saying in real estate - you can’t sell what you<br />
can smell!<br />
• Replace anything that’s broken and can’t be fixed. Fix things that are broken.<br />
• Weed your yard, gardens and walkways. Add planters, colourful flowers.<br />
• Use the checklist on the following pages for even more tips!<br />
