10 Ways to Make Your
House More Salable & 5 Ways to Speed up Your Sale
10 Ways to Make Your House More Salable
1. Get rid of clutter. Throw out or file stacks of newspapers and magazines.
Pack away most of your small decorative items. Store out-of-season clothing to
make closets seem roomier. Clean out the garage.
2. Wash your windows and screens to let more light into the interior.
3. Keep everything extra clean. Wash fingerprints from light switch plates. Mop
and wax floors. Clean the stove and refrigerator. A clean house makes a better
first impression and convinces buyers that the home has been well cared for.
4. Get rid of smells. Clean carpeting and drapes to eliminate cooking odors,
smoke, and pet smells. Open the windows.
5. Put higher wattage bulbs in light sockets to make rooms seem brighter,
especially basements and other dark rooms. Replace any burnt-out bulbs.
6. Make minor repairs that can create a bad impression. Small problems such as
sticky doors, torn screens, cracked caulking, or a dripping faucet may seem
trivial, but they’ll give buyers the impression that the house isn’t well
maintained.
7. Tidy your yard. Cut the grass, rake the leaves, trim the bushes, and edge the
walks. Put a pot or two of bright flowers near the entryway.
8. Patch holes in your driveway and reapply sealant, if applicable.
9. Clean your gutters.
10. Polish your front doorknob and door numbers.
5 Ways to Speed Up Your Sale
1. Price it right. Set a price at the lower end of your property’s realistic
price range.
2. Get your house market ready for at least two weeks before you begin showing
it.
3. Be flexible about showings. It’s often disruptive to have a house ready to
show on the spur of the moment, but the more often someone can see your home,
the sooner you’ll find a seller.
4. Be ready for the offers. Decide in advance what price and terms you’ll find
acceptable.
5. Don’t refuse to drop the price. If your home has been on the market for more
than 30 days without an offer, be prepared to lower your asking price.

Our Simple Philosophy
"The
Service
you Deserve"
...Although this is our dream house,
I definitely would recommend Kathy (Taverner) to all of our friends & relatives,
and if by chance we decide to buy again, we would use her in a heartbeat...D.S.
It was a pleasure working with Sal.
His attention to detail, professionalism and preparing this transaction
moving in a timely manner was outstanding! Great working with you Sal.
S. F.
Kelly...is such a nice person and is
so good at her job. She was pleasant, efficient, and not afraid to be
direct when we needed her to be. I would, without a doubt, recommend her
to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. J.H.
Leslie went above and beyond the
call of duty in taking care of me and my real estate needs. Thank You!
S. R.
Lee & Kathy did a great job for us.
It only took three years to find the house we wanted and they stuck it out until
we found the perfect home. D.Z.
Karen was wonderful! I felt
like a personal friend was looking out for me. Thank you. K.S.
Barbara was terrific, extremely
quick response, knows her stuff, does anything needed to get the job done.
Thanks loads!!! R.W.
