As a seller, you always want your house to be the hot cake so that you can attract many prospective clients. For your house to be a preference to most buyers, there are certain things you should put into consideration so that you get the best buyers. You should remember what makes buyers not get fixated on buying your house and the reasons the prospective buyers lay down. These may include:
Bad smells
Bad odor is a turn-off for many people. In case you’d want to auction your house, it’s good to bring a realtor who will give you an unbiased opinion about how your house smells, which would help you solve the problem of bad smell in your house. If you have pets, ensure you keep their sleeping areas clean if at they are inside the house. Having wall-to-wall carpets harbor a lot of dirt, and eventually, the bad smell will kick in. It would be best to get professional cleaners to do the cleaning because a simple vacuum won’t help. Ensure that your basement is not damp. If that is the case, purchase a dehumidifier to clear the odor and clean the moist air.
Poorly lit rooms
Many buyers prefer well-lit houses, and there is a reason for this. Many associate well-lit houses with vibrance. If your house is poorly lit, ensure that you install bright bulbs with high light efficiency. If your house has big windows, ensure that the curtain sheers are translucent to allow light to pass through. A well-lit house is usually eye captivating to buyers because, in their minds, they’re always picturing how the curtains will bring the blend when the room can allow natural light in.
Unkempt backyards and untrimmed bushes
Ensure that your backyard is well-mowed. Trim all hedges and bushes around the house. You can mount up some pot plants and plant some flowers around the yard. An attractive yard is usually a plus for buyers who want to purchase their house since they think about how attractive the outside would be to their guests. An attractive backyard clearly shows that the house is appealing inside.
Wall-to-wall house carpets
Wall-to-wall house carpets are a thing of the past. Many house buyers nowadays are attracted to houses that have hardwood floors or tiles. Auctioneers are advised to rip out those carpets and refurbish the floors with the latest tiles or hardwood floors. They are both easy to clean and rarely bring some bad odor into the house.
Your pets
Some prospective buyers are allergic to some pets or have traumas related to pets. It’s advisable to keep your house away from pets so your buyers can feel comfortable exploring your house.
Dirty bathrooms and kitchens
Ensure that your bathroom is clean by scrubbing all areas. Ensure your kitchen surfaces are clean, as well as your floors. No dirty dishes should be in the sink, especially if the prospective buyers come to visit on that day. To make the kitchen attractive, you can ensure that you have some clean kitchen towels on display so that the buyers may have an impression of a house owner who knows how to maintain the house.
Loud walls and busy wallpaper
The prospective buyer might not have the sense of style and design as you hence it’s best if you remove your history and everything from the overall appearance of the house. This will make the buyer envision himself or herself and his family in the house. You can also paint the house with neutral colors so that it’s up to the buyer to decide what he or she thinks would work best for him or if the house is painted according to their tastes and preferences.
And finally…You!
As a house seller, it’s good to bring a realtor to show the prospective buyers their way around the house. If you are the one around, the buyers may feel uncomfortable exploring the house, and they won’t take time to get comfortable around it. Being around will make them feel like they are intruding on your private space, which is not true since you’re selling this house and you’re no longer attached to it. It’s best to hire someone who will be in charge of showing the buyers around.
As a seller, you must know how quickly to sell your house despite the pricing. Many buyers don’t care about the pricing as much but the comfort the house will bring into their lives. It’s good to have a good realtor who will work hand in hand with you and give you top-notch advice to ensure you make great sales.
