Part 2: Ways to make your home sell faster

Deciding to sell your home is a crucial decision and the selling process can be quite demanding. Here’s a checklist of suggested exterior improvements to help you get started:
  • Painting:  Touch up your house’s exterior paint before you put it on the market. Paint and/or clean the front door.
  • Lawn:  Keep your lawn freshly mowed and neatly trimmed.
  • Sidewalks:  Sweep your sidewalks daily.
  • Shrubbery: Remove or replace any dead or dying trees, hedges, or shrubs; prune anything that looks unsightly or overgrown.
  • Flowers: Filling flowerbeds with seasonal flowers is an inexpensive way to add color and charm to your property.
  • Repairs:  Be sure that all gutters and downspouts are in place and clean. Replace missing roof shingles and broken or cracked windows.
  • Make sure the garage door is greased and working properly and the house address numbers are easily visible.
  • Replace stray or warped roofing shingles. Straighten sagging gutters. Repaint or replace your mailbox if it shows signs of wear.
  • Windows: Keep your windows spotless.
  • Eliminate or hide clutter:  Clear everything out of the garage that you don’t need.
