Do you have a house that you need to sell? Has it been sitting on the market for months with no offers? Maybe your house doesn’t appeal to buyers.
With the high number of houses sitting on the market buyers have more to choose from than ever. Your house must be very appealing to buyers or it will get passed over. How can you make your house easier to sell?
- Start with the outside. Curb-appeal is what gets people in the door. Make sure the exterior is painted and needs no repairs. Chipping or peeling paint will scare off most home buyers. Use a pressure washer to clean the exterior brick or siding. The yard should be freshly mowed and free of any trash or junk. Adding flower beds is an inexpensive way to make your house look better. You may also consider adding shutters to your windows. These little things will increase the curb-appeal of your house and help it be more competitive.
- Next, focus your attention on the kitchen and bathrooms, especially the master bath. Experts agree that these are the most important areas of your house. If you are going to spend money on fixing up your house, start here.
- Remove all clutter from inside your house. This helps buyers visualize how they will arrange their furniture. It also makes your house appear bigger.
- Make sure to fix any items that need repair. Leaky faucets, stained carpet, old hot water heaters, and stained bathtubs are good places to start. Just make sure that everything works.
- Finally, make sure that your house is spotlessly clean and smells good. You need to be able to show your house with little notice so keep it clean at all times.
If you do these five things and your house is priced correctly, it should sell. Some people don’t want to fix or clean anything. They can’t wait for months and months for their house to sell.
