Factors to Help You Sell Your Home Quicker

Tips from Your Northern Virginia Real Estate Broker Helena Talbot

The ideal home means different things to different people; but the most appealing home always will possess a clear and clean sense of style. Many of us allow our personal style to get in the way and that can interfere with selling your home. A few fixes can help you sell your home quicker.
Clutter Control
Every room of the house should be organized so that potential buyers can easily walk through. It can be a headache and an extra burden but think about placing items in storage, especially out-of-season items.
Take a walk around your kitchen and ask yourself - what do you really need? Start by storing bulky appliances that you rarely use. They take up lots of counter space that you will want to render useful to buyers.
The bedroom should reveal an oasis, however it often becomes a repository for heaps of clothing and portable tech gadgets. Everything has a place so if it doesn't fit or it's in the wrong room, move it or lose it.
What is in a Room ?
Did you know the number two reason people select a particular house is because of kitchen space? Eight out of ten home buyers who walk through a house remember what the kitchen looks like and what its benefits verses faults were. This leads to the question -- what is the most significant part of the kitchen? Choices include floors, appliances, lighting, but the part that stands out the most are the kitchen cabinets. It is the most dominant aspect of the kitchen, and the easiest way to create a "wow" factor. Everyone remembers the kitchen cabinets; it could be because of the color or stain, the design of the cabinet, or mostly because of the clean feel that a new kitchen cabinet provides.
Does Your Front Door say Welcome?”

And finally, Curb Appeal really sells the house. Exterior features for new or existing homes will make your house say "welcome" when you return after work or when guests come to call.
Think of your home's façade, lighting, landscaping, and exterior elevation to name a few; these items can easily customize a home when everyone else on the block seems a bit standard.
Give your home a different feel and stand out from the crowd.
