Some great tips in today’s Aspen Times Daily on how to get your home sold!  Here is a recap of what the article says will help to give your property that extra “edge”:

Simplify
Begin by de-cluttering your home.  By removing personal tems that might distract prospective buyers, you’ll help them focus on how they think the home might look when they move in.

Neutralize
Appeal to a broad range of people…replace dramatic or too busy patterns with simple, neutral tones.

Photogenic
Pictures are huge when it comes to selling real estate.  Make your home sparkle in the pictures you use to advertise it, on line and in the brochures.

A Clean House
Especially the kitchen and the bathroom!  Most important to consumers…could make or break the deal!

Scent
Keep your home smelling fresh and clean; buyer’s will be turned off by cigarette, pet and heavy cooking smells.

Details Matter
Fix and clean what you can, which gives your home the appearance of being well-maintained and cared for.  Appearance matters when selling your home!
