The exterior of your home is just as important as the interior.

Sellers are accustomed to ensuring the insides of their houses look great for buyers. They know that things should be clean, decluttered, and depersonalized. However, what about the outside of your property?

Buyers should have a great first impression when they come to your home. For the exterior, ensure that the yard and landscaping are freshly trimmed and edged. Nice mulch goes a long way to make the front of the house pop. Consider investing in some flowers to put on your front porch. You can also power-wash your driveway and sidewalk. Because we’re seeing a big trend towards outdoor living spaces, you’ll want to make sure that decks and patios are spruced up as well. Consider adding fresh flowers and new throw pillows to the deck or patio for a pop of color.

You want to make sure that buyers feel warm and welcome outside just as much as they do inside. Making sure both your interior and exterior are nicely maintained will attract more buyers. If you’d like to know more about getting your home ready to sell this spring, give me a call. I’d love to help.
