When listing your house, one of your top goals will likely be to get the house sold for the best price possible. In many cases, it’s the little things that make a big impact. Here are some small projects you can do to make sure your house is in tip-top shape when you’re ready to sell.
Clean everything
A clean house will allow buyers to picture themselves in the space and not be distracted.
Give every room a purpose
Even if you used it as a bonus room, clear room identity helps buyers visualize.
Let the light in
Bright rooms feel warm and inviting; dark rooms can feel small and gloomy.
Fix anything that’s broken
Buyers will notice and may offer less for your house if repairs are required.
Declutter your house
Thinning out your closets and pantry will show how much room is available.
Update paint and floors
These are things you can update to sell your house faster and for more money.
Organize the kitchen
Pack away any non-essentials or small appliances and clean all the surfaces.
Clean up
Empty all trash bins and hide any dirty laundry.
Fix the doors
Fix any squeaks or creaks on interior and exterior doors.
Replace light bulbs with new ones
Make sure all the switches work properly in your house.
