| The first order of business is to make
your Northern Virginia real estate shine from top to bottom, inside and out. There
is no such thing as too clean. Pay special attention to the kitchen and
bathrooms.
People don’t buy dirty, messy homes! You would
think that this is obvious, but an amazing number of people put their home
on the market without cleaning it up first.
Your home should be clean, but that’s just the
beginning. Odors from smoking and pets will scare buyers away fast. Now is
also the time to fix all of those little items that you’ve been meaning
to get to.
IT’S SHOW TIME!
Once the price is set and the preparation is done,
bring on the Northern Virginia real estate buyers!
But be careful, knowing what to say and what to do
when potential Northern Virginia buyers arrive to look at your home can make a
big difference. Always greet them courteously, and hand them a home
information brochure. If they are with a real estate agent, try to stay
out of the way.
If you are selling your home yourself, casually
guide them through your home, starting with your homes most outstanding
features. Stay with them, but give them room to breathe, or you may make
them uncomfortable.
