Tip # 4
Do a pretend walk-through
As someone selling his or her house, it is important to view
the home from the buyer’s perspective.
Try your best to enter your house as if it is completely
brand new to you. I would suggest by starting to drive/walk up to your driveway.
You might be able to view the house’s exterior aesthetics better. Or maybe able
to see a very noticeable crack in the wall that needs some minor repair. As you
walk through the home, analyze everything: Paint, carpet, counter tops,
cabinets. If you see minor things that are out of place, fix them immediately.
There are little details that can put-off a buyer like a broken door knob, hair
on the carpet, dirt on shelves etc.
You can notice things better when you try to be someone
else. It is not really aesthetics that matter, think of your home on a larger
scale. Location? History? Upgrades? Security? Put yourself completely in the
buyer’s shoe and analyze well!
