Avoid the 4 Biggest Home Selling Regrets

When selling your home, there are a few things you should do in order to avoid the four biggest regrets a home seller can have. Those regrets are: 

1. Not getting the home ready for sale. You need to purge the house of clutter, clean countertops, and tidy up bookshelves in order to make the home look more presentable. 

2. Not touching up the paint around the home. A lot of the time you need to touch up the paint on doors, doorframes, or walls. You may need to paint an entire wall. Some sellers don’t want to take care of that but wind up regretting their decision not to paint once the home is on the market. 

3. Not taking care of the carpet. You should call a professional carpet cleaner to clean the living room, dining room, and master bedroom carpets at the very least.

4. Not taking care of the landscape. It’s all about the little details. Make sure you pull all of the weeds out of the driveway and flowerbeds. Trim your shrubs and bushes. These nice little touches can make all the difference in the world.

Taking care of all the little details makes your home more presentable.

If you are interested in selling your home, we will walk around the house and look for these items. You may not be able to list your home the very next day, but if you wait a week to take care of these details, you will get much better results. Remember, if buyers see a flaw, they’ll start to look closer; one flaw can easily turn into five or six flaws. It’s all about presentation.
