Simple makeover idea 5 - Outdoors
Buyers first impressions are really important.
Make sure the lawns are mowed and the gardens are weeded and tidy
Wash the windows and check for cobwebs
For the 'wow' factor invest in some pots and plants
You will be surprised at the impact that they can have
I recently suggested this to my vendors and they were pleasantly surprised with the transformation of the dreary verandah into a warm and welcoming space
Not to mention how much better the front of the home looked in the photographs
When selling your home going the extra mile really does makes a big difference.
Expert tip: Plant some colourful flowers in the garden for that extra "wow"

Simple makeover idea 4 - Set the mood for inspections
Nothing smells better than a fragrant smelling home. A fresh smelling home is inviting to your buyers, it instantly creates a mood (be careful not to go over board with the fragrance).
Ideally burn a scented candle about an hour prior to your open home and during the open home if you can Place candles out of harms way and out of the reach of small children
Don't forget to ask your agent to blow out the candles before they leave
A pot of fresh brewed coffee is also a great idea!
Some of my vendors have even baked cookies for the open home attendees!! Yummy
Think about the temperature in the home, if you have an air conditioner cool or heat the home for comfort
If you have an open fire and weather permits light the fire, it sure creates a great ambience
Make sure the lights are on and the curtains are open for your inspections
Give the home a good clean prior to the open days and inspections
Launder linen and make sure the beds are made correctly
Importantly- stash the junk and clutter
Expert tip: Fresh flowers are a worthwhile investment. Simple arrangements in glass vases look great.
You don't have to spend alot of money on fresh flowers wander in the garden and cut some greenery, you will be surprised at just how great the greenery can look
