When taking a quick drive-by to check out a home, minor details of the house itself stick out a lot more than you’d think. Potential buyers may quickly drive by your home or park out front to see it for the first time, envisioning themselves driving up to the curb. Ensuring your home has good drive-by appeal is essential. Bring in a professional to assess what needs to be done on your roof, such as re-shingling. If your roof needs repair that you can’t do prior to listing, get reputable quotes for the price of the work, and deduct that cost from the sale price if necessary. This method is generally convenient for both the buyer and seller, making the buyer at ease, knowing they can have items repaired and upgraded, should they wish to do so.
USING CURB APPEAL
When it comes time to sell your home, don’t skimp on the smaller details when you can use curb appeal to your advantage and get more out of the selling price. By having your home in its most pristine condition, inside and out, you’ll seal the deal in no time. Image is literally everything, and the exterior of the home matters just as much as the interior. Not only does curb appeal have a big influence on selling price, but it will also ensure your home doesn’t languish on the market.
