At Coulson Realty we promise to: Tips for Sellers
Small, inexpensive touches can greatly add to the attractiveness and curbside appeal of your home. These include:
  • Keeping grass cut, flower beds weeded and brightly planted in summer - Driveway and paths cleared of snow in winter.
  • Remove any outside debris
  • Sweep decks and walkways
  • Clean basement, garage and/or attic
  • Do minor repairs ie leaky faucets, small holes in walls etc
  • Make certain appliances and extras eg burglar alarm, are in working order
  • Make sure that house is well aired and that there are no smells. Some do think that the smell of baking, particularly bread makes people feel more disposed to think of the house as a home
  • Have carpets cleaned professionally
  • Tidy any clutter in the home
  • Since different areas of renovation have a greater or lesser impact on the saleablility of your home and a greater or lesser pay-back in terms of increased value versus cost, consult with your realtor before renovating prior to selling
