Are you thinking of the best way to list your 4-bedroom Colonial-style residence? A home that isn’t staged may sell if properly priced. On the other hand, a staged place will sell faster and for more money. Here are a few ideas of what you can do to improve your chances of selling quickly for the best price?
Once your home is on the market, it's not your home. It's a product. So, you'll want to let buyer clients see your product by decluttering.
Every day fill a box with stuff. Not only will this make your home more presentable, but it will also make moving day less stressful and easier to manage.
The space in your closet above your clothes rack is usually wasted. You can put this space to work with easy-to-install pull-down rods. Install the rod anywhere near the ceiling and substantially increase the usable room in your closet.
Do you need some advice on your window treatments? I can help.
If your windows are hiding behind cumbersome drapes and other coverings, now's the time to take them down. Leave your windows bare, or hang sheer linen curtains.
If you're contemplating selling your townhouse is it time to paint?
Soft whites, plaster gray, and very subtle colors can make the walls recede from the eye and make your home a blank canvass for the next owner. “Greige,” a pale gray with a beige undertone, is one of the most versatile colors for staging. This pale taupe is a cool, sophisticated hue that can elegantly complement most furnishings.
Because we also do a lot of property management, I can recommend several painters in the City of Fairfax for you to price out a paint job.
The more your townhouse looks like your home, the less it's someone else's home. You want the buyer to be able to see the property as his or her home.
If you've loved your home, one of the most difficult chores you'll face is the task of de-personalization.
How can you make it easier for the buyer to envision your property as his or her home?
Weigh options regarding these tips:
- Consider putting flowers on your front step, or a wreath on your door, or a decorative plant in the foyer.
- Rearrange furniture to maximize floor space. When you place furnishings in your residence you maximize your home's livability. When you place furnishings in a home for sale, you want to maximize the home's appeal.
- If you have a room that is snug remove superfluous furnishings. For example, remove nightstands in a smaller bedroom. Remove end-tables from a smaller living room.
