Tackle these 3 “C’s” to sell your home

Spacious living room.

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to preparing your home to be sold. Perhaps there are repairs, chores or other tasks that you have been putting off for a while and now that you’ve decided to sell, it’s time to think about prioritizing those things. If you haven’t been fortunate enough to have hired a professional maid service Phoenix, nor have had time to tackle the chores yourself, that will be on the list of priorities no doubt.

Everyone knows that when strangers are walking through your home, they are viewing everything with very critical eyes. It is therefore important that you prepare your home, either with the assistance of a maid service or on your own. If you’re limited on time and/or budget, you will want to score some quick, easy and inexpensive wins to get your home looking it’s absolute best. Below are a few of our top picks to help you get ready to show your home.

Top 3 simple Tips to sell home faster:

Color

Believe it or not, about 90% of home buyers lack the creative vision to see a home’s potential. Surprisingly one of the simplest improvements a homeowner can make when selling their home is a change to their wall colors. The amount of times that prospective buyers turn their noses up due to wall colors in a home is shockingly high! While you may have been in love with bright red or deep purple, your typical home buyer most likely won’t feel the same. Take action to neutralize the wall colors using classic choices that are not too dark. Keeping it neutral and light makes the space appear larger and more inviting.

Clutter

Let’s face it, showing a home that has clutter is not going to show well. Not only is clutter unsightly, but prospective buyers will get the impression that there is a lack of storage and/or space in the home. The emotional response to clutter is usually a feeling of being weighed down, feeling overwhelmed and perhaps like you are in the midst of chaos. Unless, you want buyers to walk in the front door and quickly run out the back door, de-cluttering is a must. Before putting your home on the market, formulate an action plan to tackle one room or closet a day. Not only will this increase the chances of a quick sale, but it will also make the move packing go smoother, plus you will get to enjoy a serene environment in the meantime.

Cleanliness

Maybe this sounds too simple, but we’ve all walked through the proverbial dirty house and thought “Yuck!” Unless you want to advertise “Dust Bunnies Convey”, it is best to get someone to start cleaning away the dust and grime. The fastest way to turn off prospective buyers is to present them with a dirty home. Nobody wants to step into someone else’s dirt. The vast majority of people don’t like cleaning, so a great option is to call in the professional cleaners. Using a professional maid service Phoenix means the whole home will be sparkling from top to bottom. A deep clean from you or your selected maid service will be a great investment of time or money so that when your home goes on the market it will have a strong foundation for a sale, plus you can also consider weekly cleans to keep your home looking its best.
