Fall Tips for Great Curb Appeal

The fall selling season is here and there is no doubt that we are in an unusual and sometimes difficult market. With so much inventory to choose from buyers need to make sure their home shows well. First impressions can make a difference, so make certain the curb appeal of your home is attractive. If the outside of a home looks a mess that perfect buyer may pass you by. I have listed some tips to help you improve the curb appeal of your home for the fall selling season.

Be sure the lawn is cut and all weeds removed.
Rake and dispose of leaves.
Make sure that landscaping is well maintained.
Clean and inspect gutters and down spouts.
Make sure that siding, shutters and brick are in good condition.
Clean windows.
Ensure that outdoor lighting works properly. Replace any bulbs that no longer work.
Use mums to add color to your landscape.
Remove cobwebs and bugs from doors, windows and shrubs.
Make sure that the front door is attractive and inviting.

Happy Fall Selling! If you are looking for more tips, please contact me @ 317-557-5478.
