Make sure to think out your curb appeal, just like you would do for a job interview. Dress up how your home looks from the curb. If you are trying to sell your home and it is on the market potential clients will often drive by your home. If they like what they see from the street you will most likely get a walk through scheduled.

Your home is a big investment, take time to plan out how your home will appear to passersby. Increasing the value of your home, does have to be expensive. Simple things like a mowed lawn free from weeds, dead patches and leaves can say a lot about how you have taken care of you home. Make sure to trim shrubs and trees. Remove dead patches, shrubs, plants and trees.  Even freshly planted flowers will be quite welcoming.

You can even improve the look of your front door by adding a splash of color, new hardware or door knob. Or you can make your mailbox stand out. A little cash combined with a thoughtful plan can mean a major return on your investment.

  1. Pickup A Brush

Take time to place a fresh coat of paint inside your home and out. A fresh coat of paint will make that tired old space look brand new. Whether you are painting your home, deck, door, walls or cabinets make sure to use colors that your potential buyers will like. Neutral colors are more acceptable to the widest number of buyers. Light colors will open the space and make small rooms look larger. Don’t neglect the trim, dust and clean baseboards. Use stains and always touch up imperfections in the wood as best you can.
