So Spring has sprung and your thinking about selling your home. Winter has passed and it's time to tidy up that yard with a little curb appeal. An attractive exterior can make or brake a home sale, so lets get rid of all that winter dirt. Dirt and scum be gone, it's time to wash away the grime, winter stains and dirty porches.
The NAR says 63% of home buyers will drop by a home after viewing a home they like online, and what will they see? the home exterior. The home's exterior, including the front entry,
yard, driveway and sidewalk, should serve as a snapshot of what's to
come when potential buyers enter your home.
1st tip - I love using a power washer , not hard to use and reasonable to rent, you may be surprised, someone you know may have one, borrow it, and it wont cost you a dime. This will gives the exterior of your home, driveway and walkways an appearance of new, shiny and a freshness. Don't forget to wash those windows , it will add sparkle to the exterior. If your house numbers aren't east to see or if there dirty and dingy, try washing them, painting them to make them Pop or just replace them..
2nd tip - Trimming those trees.. always makes the yard look great. Remove all those dead branches from your shrubs, this will open the view of your home.
3rd tip - Try adding flowers and mulch to your flower beds, this will add Pizzazz needed to welcome buyers and make a great 1st lasting impression.
4th tip - Placing decorative colorful pots on your porch, steps, and yard will add an extra pop of Pizzazz to pull the buyer in closer and giving them an excitement to see the interior. This does not have to be pricey. Look for used and reuse those pots you may have.

Your home need to look it's best for potential home buyers. Remember you only have one chance to make that first impression.
Your front door’s make a huge statement, and a soft color scheme for the home's exterior will help soften the hard edges.
Buyers will generally drive by a home before they schedule a showing, curb appeal set’s the mood and attitude if a buyers will want to see your home.
5th tip - Act like a buyer, walk around your home with a critical eye, take notes. Then hop in your car and drive by your home from both directions, park in front on the street a take a real good look, see what others see. THXLW
