Property Seller Tips

Start From the Outside, and Work Your Way In

• Don’t underestimate the importance of drive-up appeal. Neatly trimmed shrubs and a clean walkway all help make a good first impression. Also, repair or replace damaged screens, glass panes, door hardware, and other outdoor fixtures. 

Invest In Paint

• Paint livens up a dingy room and makes it fresh and more appealing. Use soothing colors like white or other neutral tones.

Invite Sunshine

• Open your blinds to let in the sun and brighten the room. Washing windows inside and out will add sparkle to your room. Also, turn on accent lighting and replace missing light bulbs. This helps to make the commercial space more inviting. 

• Check squeaky and hard-to-open windows, doors, doorknobs, drawers, and sliding glass doors for ease of operation and provide adjustments or lubrication as necessary.  And always clean rust and soiled spots, empty trash baskets, and deodorize your space. 

• Remove clutter from bathroom vanities and cabinets. Be sure to scrub the sinks, tub, shower, and polish mirrors and chrome. Always clean the floors and walls, and deodorize the area. Put out nice towels, and add some scented soaps. 

• Arrange your shared spaces and furniture to create an open friendly effect. Straighten cluttered bookshelves and discard excess papers. Clean all the carpets, and polish the furniture. By adding a few magazines, books, and flowers to the coffee table, you’ll portray an inviting and well-maintained office space. 

• Permit visitors to see the value of your property from the front entrance to the back. Remove unnecessary artifacts, and neatly arrange stored boxes and cartons. Darker spaces may be lightened with new paint or additional lights in the room.
