Let's talk Curb Appeal

There are three things that will bring buyers into a home.

1. A good realtor.
2. Good photos of the home on the internet.
3. Great curb appeal.

It's the spring season - the grass is growing and flowers are blooming, so let's talk curb appeal.

Great curb appeal is what gets buyers out of their car and into the home. Without curb appeal, potential buyers will think twice about getting out of the car and some will just keep on driving. Here are the "must do's" for curb appeal.

Mow the lawn and get rid of weeds.
Edge sidewalks and remove grass or weeds growing between the walkway spaces.
Remove trash, debris, garden tools, toys - in other words, declutter the yard.
Clean the windows
Clean the gutters.
Pressure wash dirty siding and dingy decks.
Trim tree limbs that are near or touching the home's roof.
Give the front door a fresh coat of paint. Think color.
Plant or place flowers. Give the home a splash of color with hanging baskets, pots, and window boxes of flowers.
Replace or add a new welcome mat.
