Prep your home for the spring market

March 24, 2015

Spring is here and with spring comes changes in weather that we have all been awaiting. There are a few spring cleaning items that you can do to help with all the spring showings that are bound to happen with this hot spring market!

Rake your leaves! If you have leaves left from the previous fall, rake them. Clean up your yard so it is easier for the potential buyers to see the lawn and all that your yard has to offer them. A simple step like raking can make a world of different when viewing homes and getting a feel for the space.

Clean up chipping paint on your window trim. With the harsh weather conditions that Minnesota tends to have, a simple step to keeping your home appealing to the eye is to clean up the paint. Window trim does chip due to the weather conditions and touching that up is a great way to not only make it look better, but also may steer you clear from any issues that could arise from an appraiser for the potential buyer.

Stack those boxes and get rid of the clutter! Keeping the rooms in your home easily accessible is very important. We always like to go in to a home knowing we can move around and get a good idea of how much space there is and at what capacity it could be used to. When everything is covered with boxes and random items, it truly makes it hard to see key features in the home. Also, keep your utilities clear so they are always accessible to contractors for any work that may need to be completed.
