Seller's Guide

Make a great first impression of your home with a freshly painted front door. Evaluate the condition of your home's exterior paint as well as the front steps, patio, and railings. A fresh coat of paint can make all the difference!

Sometimes the simplest things can make the biggest difference. New planters on the front porch filled with beautiful, vibrant flowers will make your home appear more inviting, warm, and welcoming.

While a dirty, oil-stained driveway gives the impression of a home that may need some work, a pressure-washed driveway and walkway present a clean, well-maintained home.

Replace faded, builder-grade exterior lighting with new, up-to-date fixtures. Shiny new fixtures will brighten up your home at night, and look clean and polished during the day. Evaluate the front door handle and lockset as well.

An abandoned-looking yard makes buyers think the home might be neglected, but a freshly cut lawn and well-manicured gardens show a well-cared-for home. Be ready for showings by staying on top of lawn mowing.

Clear, crisp numbers that can be seen from the street make your home easier to find as well as giving the overall appearance a little boost. You may also want to evaluate the condition of your mailbox.

Add a brand new welcome mat to greet buyers as they walk through the front door. Even the smallest details like these can make a home feel more inviting.
