With spring right around the corner, I thought today would be a good time to give you some tips on how to prepare your home to sell in the spring market. 

First, you need to neutralize and depersonalize your space as much as you can. Buyers want to be able to walk into a house and visualize themselves there, which means it’s time to start decluttering and stowing away items you don’t need either in the garage or in a storage unit. You don’t need to take down every personal photo, but toning down the personal items is a must. 

Next, now is a good time to replace any flooring or touch up any areas that need new paint. A fresh coat of paint goes a long way in making your home feel move-in ready. Remember to stick with neutral paint colors!

You also need to to make sure you clean up the outside of your home. The outside is going to give off the first impression, which means you need to cut back the shrubs and put away any lawn decorations.

It would also be a good idea to power wash your exterior and give your front door a fresh coat of paint!
