Follow these simple tips, whether you work with me or not, to prepare your home for a successful and quick sale.

Depersonalize Your House

Box up your personal photographs, family heirlooms, and other objects that might distract potential buyers. Depersonalizing your home makes it easier for buyers to visualize how the home might look filled with their own items.

Declutter Your Home

Discard items that you no longer use or want. Consider donating them to a charity or nonprofit organization. These items not only help those in need but some are tax-deductible.

Organize Bedroom Closets & Storage Cabinets

Buyers will be curious about storage space and will want to check closets and cabinets. It's important to ensure these spaces are organized, as it sends a negative message if your storage spaces are cluttered.

Consider Renting A Storage Unit

Almost every home shows better with less furniture. Renting a storage unit will allow you to keep furniture that you would like to save for your next home. Leave just enough furniture to stage the home with plenty of room for buyers to move around.

Make Minor Repairs

Replace burned-out light bulbs and patch any holes in the walls. Fix leaky faucets and doors that don't close properly, as well as kitchen drawers that jam. Consider painting walls in neutral colors, making your house more appealing to buyers.

Make The House Sparkle

Consider hiring a professional cleaning crew to help. Don't forget to wash the windows inside and out, pressure wash the sidewalks and the exterior of the house, and clean tubs, showers, and sinks. Make sure all dust is removed from places it might be hiding.

Scrutinize Curb Appeal

A potential sale is lost quickly if a buyer is turned off by the exterior of your house. Make sure your house is welcoming to potential buyers. Possibly add a wreath to your door, place a couple of flowerpots on your front porch and make sure your lawn is presentable.

What It Will Take To Sell Your Home

It's important to have me, as your agent, set a price that makes sense and then showcase or “stage” your Colorado home to bring in potential buyers. Qualified buyers will notice the simple measures we take to dress up your home and feel impressed to solidify the offer quickly.
