INTERIOR
Exteriors attract, but interiors sell! Curb appeal draws buyers into your house, but appealing, well-cared-for interiors make the sale. Usually, you do not have to spend thousands of dollars on your home prior to putting up the For Sale sign. On the contrary, the little things you do generally give the most significant increase in value.
FOLLOW THE 3 C’S
Clean it up, clear the clutter and make cosmetic improvements.
CLEAN, SCRUB AND POLISH
Your stove, oven, refrigerator, microwave oven and other appliances must be spotless inside and out. Scour walls, floors, bathtubs, showers and sinks until they sparkle. Buyers will notice strong smells as soon as they enter your front door, so eliminate smoke, mildew and pet odors. Cleaning drapes and carpets help get rid of odors. Dehumidifiers help musty basements. If you are a smoker, clean all ashtrays daily. Use air fresheners or citrus-scented potpourri to keep your house odor-free. Whether you do the work or hire someone, ensure your house is spotless and odorless.
