Preparing your home to sell is a crucial step in the marketing and selling it to the buying public. You can only make one first impression, so here are some tips:

• Do inexpensive things first. Cleaning and tiding up obvious clutter and mess.
• Enhance curb appeal to prevent scaring buyers away from the outside, for example lawn care.
• Speak with me first, as your Real Estate Advisor, before doing any repairs, improvements or renovations to ensure additional money, time and work is worthwhile.
• Do a situation analysis: weigh the pros and cons of selling as is verses pros and cons of making improvements and repairs.
