22 Tips to Sell your House Fast! Part 3
Imagine visiting a house with a very beautiful colonial exterior. You step in and it looks more like a fraternity home on campus! How would you react?
You’ve put on your charm and worked hard in making your home exterior look picture perfect! It’s time to take the interiors to the next step.
Packing: Put away everything that you don’t use regularly. To that list add personal mementos, collector’s items, souvenirs. Anything that distinctly spells your personality should put away in the storage.
Interiors: Some people recommend leaving the house empty so that people can imagine their own lives in those open spaces. Don’t spend too much money here, and make it as minimalistic as possible.
Flooring: Whether carpet or wood, make sure you observe the condition of your floors. Evenness in color tone and texture is what you should look for.
Painting: Chipped, faded walls could devalue your home. A couple coats of fresh paint could do wonders to a living space! Avoid dark shades; they tend to make the room look smaller. If you want to add color, look at using neutral shades with one accented wall. Also, pay special attention to the ceilings. A nice white ceiling can make your space look a lot bigger.
Cleaning Areas: You don’t want anyone thinking ‘you missed a spot.’ People often forget to clean underneath furniture, behind household appliances, ceiling fan blades, light fixtures, and the skirting around walls.
Lights & Windows: Just like the treatment done outside, take a second glance at fixtures, bulbs and window dressings. Uniformity is key! Look for bright bulbs, and replace all with the same kind. If a room has more than one window, it’s nicer to have the same window treatments everywhere. If people come in during the day, keep windows open to bring in natural light and make the room feel more airy. If it’s later in the day, you must put all the lights on to brighten up your space.
