Summer is a great time to put your home on the market. The weather is warm, school is out and the Austin real estate market is thriving. However, before listing with an agent it is important to make sure your home is in tip top shape in order to entice buyers. Below are tips for staging your home to sell:
Clean & Clear
Make sure that your home is spotless each time you are showing it. It is important to do a deep clean as well as make sure that your home feels inviting and open to potential buyers. This can be accomplished by de-cluttering your space and keeping the décor simple. Always make sure to clean common space areas as well as closets and bathrooms.
Spruce Up Your Space
When staging a home, it is important that décor and furniture are up to date and on trend. This does not necessarily mean you need to gut your space and start from scratch, but simply adding chair covers, neutral tone accent pillows and chic yet simple rugs can take your space to the next level.
Curb Appeal
Your front yard is a potential buyer’s first impression of your home. Keeping your yard green, planting fresh seasonal flowers and taking time to do landscaping can help your home shine. Cleaning your home’s exterior windows and porch lights as well as adding a welcoming door mat or patio furniture set the tone for the home’s interior tour.
