Preparing Your Home For Sale
Realty Center
Will a can of paint amount to thousands of dollars added to your sales price? It could. Because while you know your home is valuable, sometimes all it takes is a few little improvements to help potential buyers see it too.
We’ve outlined the most popular upgrades below. Our agents can help prioritize each by determining which projects will add the most value based on your specific home, neighborhood and market.

Declutter
Your closet looks twice as big with half the clutter.
Paint
A fresh coat of paint serves as a blank canvas to potential buyers.
Decorate
Prove that each room has purpose, but don't overdo it.
Brighten
Natural lighting really does help lift the mood and make a room look larger.
Exterior
A fresh coat of paint really can make any exterior look new again.
Landscape
If the landscaping is bad, they likely won't step inside.
Garage
Prove that both cars can actually fit by tidying up.
Patio & Deck
Set up the patio as if your friends were coming over for a barbeque.
Set a fair price based on comparable homes, the local market and more. If you set your price too high, your home may sit on the market. If you set it too low, you risk cheating yourself out of thousands of dollars.
From finding the right people to interpreting the results, we’re here to help. You know an inspection is inevitable, so it’s to your advantage to be proactive and work with our network agents ahead of time.
Our highly trained network agents have the wisdom and dedication to ensure you get all the value that home brings – not just in your first home, but year after year after year, home after home after home.
