As a Brantford/Brant County Real Estate agent, I think that it’s important to remind my clients about the importance of curb appeal. The better maintained your property appears to be, the more a buyer will be willing to offer for it. Here are a few quick curb appeal tips to make your Brantford/Brant County home or investment property look its best:
Clean up your yard. Do you have fall leaves all over your front lawn? Is the grass overgrown? Are there toys and bicycles along your front walkway? Make sure you rake, mow and clean up your yard before you start showing your property. The entryway to your Brantford/Brant County home should be clear and easily accessible.
Repaint. Nothing makes a house look more neglected than peeling paint. It’s imperative to give a little extra TLC to the places on your home’s exterior where the paint is unsightly or lacking. Go above and beyond to give those spots a fresh coat of paint. The front door is another great place to present a freshly painted surface. The newer it looks, the more valuable your home will be to a buyer.
Put out a fresh Welcome mat. It sounds silly, but it does add a nice touch to your entryway. Remember: the more inviting your home looks, the more enticing it will be to potential buyers.
Clean out your gutters. Now that it’s fall, you will likely have a buildup of fallen leaves, twigs and other debris in your gutters. It’s important to do your best to clean these out BEFORE showing time. This might not seem like something that would be incredibly noticeable, but you’d be surprised how many buyers pick up on it. Remember: buyers are visiting your home with an incredibly critical eye. They’ll notice EVERY detail, so make those little finishing touches count.
