Buyers will first see your home online or from their realtor - but to seal the deal, getting your home ready for them to see in person is what will sell your home!

Follow these SIX tips to make a great first impression to those buyers!

1. Leave the house before showings so the buyer feels comfortable to really look around your home.

2. Open blinds and curtains to let in as much light as possible!

3. Turn on all lights, and if you have a fireplace - turn that on too!

4. Place fresh flowers or bowls of fruit in the kitchen to add a bright detail.

5. Ensure trash from bathrooms and the kitchen as well as recycling is taken outside.

6. Any evidence of pets should be hidden away, and if possible take your pets out of the house!

I understand! This is your home - where your memories are, your children grew up here, gathered with friends and family for all sorts of events and it’s difficult to remove emotions from that. Here are some advice I have to offer if you’re having an emotional time with listing your home!

• Make sure you're ready by making a list of reasons to sell.

• Remember that this is a business transaction - try not to take feedback from buyers or agents personally!

• Be open to negotiations and realistic about your selling timeframe based on your local housing market sales!

The kids are officially back to school! Summer flew by and as everyone heads back into their routines, let’s talk about why it’s important to think about school districts when buying your home!

It’s no surprise that real estate is about location - but did you know according to the National Association of REALTORS®, 24% of home buyers are influenced by the quality of the school district. But data shows that for home buyers aged 31 to 41, this increases to 42%!

Was this a thought when you were buying your home? I’d love to hear your opinion in the comments!
