10 Ways to Prepare for the Spring Market: Listing Your Home

Declutter & Clean: Clean and declutter the entire home, including the closets and drawers. A clean, tidy home looks more spacious and appealing.

Repaint: A fresh coat of paint can make a big difference in the look and feel of a home. Stick with neutral colours that appeal to a broad range of buyers. Lighter colours can make a room appear more spacious. Be sure to keep that in mind. 

Make Minor Repairs: Fix any small repairs that have been put off, such as leaky faucets, broken tiles, or loose doorknobs.

Deep Clean Carpets: Have carpets professionally cleaned to remove any stains and odours. 

Curb Appeal: Enhance the home's curb appeal with fresh landscaping, planting flowers, and power washing the exterior.

Stage the Home: Consider hiring a professional stager to create an inviting and welcoming atmosphere.

Update Lighting: Replace outdated light fixtures with modern, energy-efficient models. Also be sure to match all light switches and outlets in your home for a smooth, clean look. 

Upgrade Appliances: Upgrade old appliances with new, energy-efficient models. This can also increase the home's value.

Add a Fresh Coat of Mulch: Add a fresh coat of mulch to the flower beds and garden areas to enhance the home's overall appeal and offer a great first impression as Buyers approach your home. 

Price it Right: Consult with a real estate professional to determine the appropriate market value of the home. Pricing it right is key to a successful sale!
