Selling a House? Wow Your Buyers With These Tips From EXIT Realty Midwest

Selling a house is a great deal like applying for a job; you only get one chance to make a great first impression, so you have to make it count. EXIT Realty Midwest, a real estate agency with offices in Spirit Lake, Cherokee, and Le Mars, knows how to create an environment that prospective buyers will love.

They always recommend homeowners make a few minor changes that will wow your buyers as soon as they walk through the door, such as:

• Clearing Up The Clutter: The most important element of selling a house is creating an environment in which buyers can imagine themselves living, which means literally making space for them. A good rule of thumb is to clear out at least a quarter of your belongings, especially from closets and storage areas. Open spaces will make each room seem larger, airier, and more inviting.
• Brightening Things Up: It doesn't take an expensive renovation to make your home brighter and more beautiful. Start by cleaning all the light fixtures and painting the walls neutral colors, pull back the blinds, and trim back any trees or bushes that might be blocking natural light.
• Checking The Temperature: When trying to make your home as comfortable as possible, don't neglect the temperature. Most people prefer having the thermostat set in the 68-72 degree range, but if you're showing your home during the hottest part of the summer, you may want to keep it in the high 60s.
