How to get your Home Ready to Sell

Making sure your home looks its absolute best is key to getting top dollar. So before you put your home on the market, take a look at this quick checklist to make sure all your ducks are in a row and your home is ready to sell!

Let’s see how to get your home ready to sell!

 

01. Do your own walkthrough as if you were a potential buyer – Buyers see things you may be looking past. Enter your home as if you’re seeing it for the first time. Make note of things that pop out and things that aren’t ideal. Make those changes if possible. 

02. Make sure all landscaping is refreshing & tidy⁠ – Your curb appeal will let potential buyers know what to expect inside. If the yard is a mess and the exterior of the home is unkempt, they may not make it past the front door. Clean up your front yard by mowing the lawn, mulching, and planting some bright flowers. 

 

Confirm the age of your home’s roof, HVAC, water heater, & gutters

 

03. Consider hiring a professional real estate photographer⁠ – Professional photos will draw buyers to your home online. It will showcase your home in the best light and give buyers the incentive to come see this wonderful home in person. 

04. Fill out a Seller’s Disclosure – Confirm the age of your home’s roof, HVAC, water heater, & gutters. Buyers will want to know this information⁠. You can provide it, along with what is being included in the sale of the home (think chandeliers, mirrors, washer/dryer, fridge) on the seller’s disclosure.
