The first thing a buyer will see is the outside of the front of the house. That first few seconds will determine if they will consider buying or not! Make it shine.

The front door is where you greet the potential Buyer's. Make it the most inviting part of the house. Look at it objectively. Is it faded or worn? Is the weather striping loose? Consider repairing or replacing it.

Take a walk through and inspect your home. Take notes of all the things that may need to be repaired or improved.

Fresh paint throughout the house, only if really needed. A lot of people prefer to paint the home themselves.

Clean, Make your home Sparkle, because Home Buyer's equate clean with a well keep home.

Wash windows and coverings.

Make sure all plumbing and appliances are in working order.

Clean the garage. There is nothing worst then walking into a dirty garage piled with boxes.

All sealant (windows, tubs, shower, sink) are in good condition.

Make sure the roof and gutters are clean and need no repair.

Make all necessary repairs before you list your property.

Un-cluttered and create space! Clutter makes a home seem smaller and therefore less desirable. Closets are particularly important. Consider storing some of the stuff in your closets in the basement, garage or attic.
