Curb Appeal Checklist

One of the best ways to assess your home is to have a real estate professional who shows similar properties to buyers and hears what it is important, what makes the difference to these buyers, to take a look at your home before you place it on the market!

I can bring you not only a buyers perspective and an accumulation of suggestions,.. but my own professional expertise in how you can prepare your home, inside and outside to attract the most buyers in this "buyers market". 

Call me today for a consultation. I will be happy to work with you!

Here are a few suggestions to get you started!

Inspect the outside ground. Remove any building materials, scrap wood, discarded household items, etc. from the property. Store garbage cans in the garage.

Check the home from the roof line down.

  • Is the roof free and clear from obstructions and moss?
  • Are the gutters clear and neatly hung?
  • Are the windows clean and free from obstructions (such as overgrown bushes or trees)?
  • Are bushes, trees and shrubs neatly pruned?
  • Inspect the condition of the paint or siding?

  • Is it time to power wash the siding?
  • Is touch up paint needed?
  • Is the front door in good shape?
  • Do flower beds need an upgrade?

  • Are plants neatly pruned?
  • Is the bed free and clear of weeds?
  • Is the bed properly mulched?
  • Are flowers in bloom?
  • Keep the lawn neatly groomed.

  • Is the lawn free from weeds?
  • Is the lawn free from grass clippings?
  • Is the lawn neatly edged?
  •
