Selling my Home in Florida What should I do
Join us on Social Media
There are
several things you can do to prepare your house for sale:
First things
first – have a garage sale. Whatever doesn’t sell needs to be set out for a
Disabled American Veterans or Association of Retarded Citizens pickup. Once the
clutter is cleared away, it will be easier to see what needs to be done.
This is your
first impression, so it had better be a good one.
Edge, mow and
fertilize the lawn regularly. Make sure it’s well watered and reseed any sparse
areas.
Put a bright coat
of paint on your mailbox.
Trim hedges weed
lawns and flowerbeds, and prune trees regularly. Cut back overgrown shrubbery
that looks scraggly or keeps light out of the house.
Buy a new welcome
mat.
Check the
foundation, steps, walkways, walls and patios for cracks and crumbling, and
reseal if possible.
Clean and declutter Make sure your house is clean and
clutter-free. This includes cleaning carpets, windows, and surfaces, as well as
getting rid of any excess furniture or clutter.
Repair and update Fix any damage or worn-out features in
your home, such as leaking faucets, broken tiles, or outdated appliances.
Consider making small updates, like painting the walls or replacing old light
fixtures.
Stage the interior Consider staging the interior of your
home to make it more appealing to potential buyers. This can include
rearranging furniture, adding decorative accents, and making sure each room
looks welcoming and well-organized.
Improve curb appeal First impressions matter, so make sure
the exterior of your home looks attractive. This includes mowing the lawn,
trimming shrubs, and adding colorful plants or flowers.
Gather necessary documents Have all necessary documents,
such as your property title and any warranties or receipts for repairs or
updates, ready to give to potential buyers.
Set the right price Determine the right price for your home
by considering factors such as location, size, condition, and recent sales
prices for similar homes in your area.
