We Will!
  - Help Make a Good Impression!

Staging Your Property You never have a second chance to make a first impression. This is why "staging" your property is so important. Whether we are marketing your property for sale or lease, the first impression will be the most lasting. A well cared for home that makes a great first impression will maximize sale or lease potential.

Manicure the yard. This includes edging and trimming, weeding and cultivating the beds, trimming shrubs and making sure all trash and debris are removed. Mulch is a wonderful thing, if you have a bed that needs work, a bag of mulch will help! A few strategically placed flowerpots with a splash of color can make a world of difference!

Entryways should be welcoming and free of clutter and debris. A coat of paint for the front door and waxing the entry hall are good starters. Make sure all cobwebs are brushed away from eaves. Don't forget the driveway and sidewalks.

Make sure all flooring is shiny and clean throughout. Clean and deodorize all carpets, especially if you have pets. Stretch carpets where needed.

The kitchen will make or break most sales, so be sure to take extra time here. Take a long, hard, objective look at yours and make sure it sparkles! Simmering potpourri helps to make your home smell more inviting. Baking bread or cookies works wonders for a homey feel!

Next to kitchens, bathrooms are the most important rooms in the house. Make sure they sparkle! Fresh caulking around the tub, shower and vanity is a quick and inexpensive fix. A colorful hand towel or decorative soaps add a fresh look.

Make sure the interior is uncluttered. Now is a great time to do that spring-cleaning you've been putting off. Closet space is important, so make sure closets are neat and not overstuffed; people will open the closet doors! Consider it pre-packing to move.

Furnishings should be arranged to make each room appear spacious and attractive. To create a more spacious feeling, pack up those knickknacks! Lighting is an often-underestimated selling point. Open the shades and let he sun shine in. If you do not have much natural light, a few strategically placed floor lamps and table lamps will compensate. Make sure all light bulbs are working and turn them on.

The garage and storage spaces should also be clean, and if used for storage as free of clutter as possible.
