Spring really is here at last! Listing your house for sale?<br />
Here are some inexpensive ways you can increase your<br />
curb appeal: A broken/peeling front door speaks of neglect, so paint/replace/<br />
repair. Does the door lock work easily? If the agent has to struggle to unlock it,<br />
or it’s old and rusty, the customer may wonder what else isn’t working! Repair<br />
or repaint screen doors and decks. Clean and repair windows if needed. Rake<br />
leaves, remove broken tree limbs and replace dead or dying plants and shrubs.<br />
Bring in some colour with fresh pots of flowers by your front door or porch.<br />
Mow and water regularly - when prospective buyers see well-kept lawns and<br />
attractive plant beds, they get the message that someone cares about this<br />
home. It’s true that the first impression is the most important, and these steps<br />
will help ensure that it’s a good one!<br />
Yes, you can join the <strong>Chamber</strong>!<br />
