Improving Your First-Impression Appeal
If your home lacks immediate visual appeal, it’s likely to
keep many prospective buyers from ever coming in to look around.
Yet with a little time and a little money you can easily improve
your home’s exterior appeal and increase buyer walk-throughs
by:
- Cutting, edging, and regularly watering the lawn;
- Trimming hedges, weeding lawns and flowerbeds, and pruning trees
regularly;
- Repairing any cracks in the foundation, steps, paths, walls
and patios;
- Repairing peeling paint on doors and windows;
- Cleaning and aligning gutters;
- Inspecting and cleaning the chimney;
- Repairing and replacing loose or damaged roof tiles;
- In winter, keeping paths neatly cleared of snow and ice;
- In summer, puting some hanging baskets or plant pots by the
front door
- Keeping your garage door closed;
- Applying a fresh coat of paint to the front door.
