When showing your home at an open house, you want to be sure
that potential buyers see the best version of the house. You want visitors to
be able to picture themselves living there and making your house their new
home. In this blog, we’re going to discuss some tips for preparing your home
for an open house! Follow these suggestions for the best results:
Clean. This might seem obvious, but it’s important to
mention. When people visit an open house, they expect the home to be well cared
for and presentable. Clean your home so that it meets the standards you’d have if
you were attending an open house. You might even consider hiring professionals
to assist with the cleaning process, such as window and carpet cleaners. Again,
this may seem obvious, but the cleaner your home is, the more likely it is to
sell quickly.
These tips for preparing for an open house should help you get your home ready to sell! |
Make small updates. You don’t need to invest in a complete
kitchen or bathroom renovation to host a successful open house. Although those types
of updates are encouraged, they aren’t required. Instead, consider simply
giving your walls a fresh coat of paint. Buy new curtains for the living room. Go
shopping for new artwork for the walls or the mantel. Paint your kitchen and bathroom
cabinets.
Eliminate clutter. When folks are touring your home, they
don’t want to see your to-be-read pile, overflowing laundry baskets, and packed
boxes. They want to see a well-maintained, pristine home. Along with cleaning
and making small updates, make sure to remove any clutter! Your home will give
off a better first impression this way. Also, the more things cluttering up
your home, the less you are able to show off the square footage.
