When it comes time to sell your home, there are so many things to consider to prepare the property for a sale. One thing sellers often neglect is their home’s curb appeal. First impressions should not be underrated, that’s why improving your home’s curb appeal is so important when putting your property on the market.
Buyers assume if the outside of the house is rundown, the inside will look the same. Appealing from the outside will entice more prospective buyers and potentially result in a higher sale price for your home.
Tips to improve your curb appeal
It’s important to ensure the exterior of your home presents well to impress many buyers and drive the sale price higher. Whilst style is subjective, every potential buyer will be impressed by a neat and tidy lawn and a fresh exterior paint job.
- Paint the exterior
- A fresh coat of paint shows you care about the condition of your home and leaves an impression on buyers. It’s amazing how much a new coat of paint can modernise a home and make it stand out from neighbouring homes.
- Replace the mailbox
- A new mailbox adds style to your exterior whilst showing prospective buyers that you care about the condition of the home.
- Add lighting
- Adding lighting to the front of your house adds style and reassurance for buyers that if they come home in the night there are lights to guide them home.
- Refresh or replace outdoor furniture
- Replacing old outdoor furniture or restoring existing furniture can add to the curb side appeal of your house. This demonstrates the lifestyle that your home can offer and allows potential buyers to imagine their own family enjoying time outside.
- Power wash
- Cleaning the front of house with a good power wash can go a long way for your curb appeal. It tells buyers you care about the condition of your home, making the property more enticing.
When the time does come to selling your home, improving both the interior and exterior of your home is vital to ensure a successful sale. Improving your curb appeal should be high on your list of home improvements to prepare to go to market.
