Prepare your Woodbridge VA Home for a Successful Sale

How should you prepare your home if you are planing on selling it in the near or distant future. The very first thing is to speak to a local Woodbridge VA Real Estate Agent. I meet with sellers all the time and provide them with information on what upgrades or preparations could help sell their home quickly and for top dollars.When I walk into a home I always provide sellers with recommendations of what could provide them with the highest return on invest. Of course these are just recommendations and it is always up to the seller if they want to take my recommendations or not, but trust me I know what I am talking about. I can still sell your home as is but most of the time the recommendations I make will provide you with a higher return.

• Cleaning and decluttering really doesn’t have to cost you anything, unless you are hiring a cleaning team and getting additional storage. If you are decluttering and cleaning this can be a zero cost item and it will have the biggest impact and will give you the highest return.
• Same if landscaping, if you have somewhat of a green thumb then go to Lowes or home depot and buy some nice flower pots, mulch and anything else that can give your home curb appeal.
• Repairing electrical or plumbing for this you will most likely hire a professional, but you can replace and making sure all light bulbs are working.
• Small kitchen and bathroom upgrades will go a long way. You can upgrade flooring very easily, paint will go a long way too.
• Clean carpets, this will go a long way.
• Paint will make your home look great. Neutral paint this is. Paint yourself or hire a professional but this doesn’t have to break the bank either.
• Repair Floors, I have an excellent flooring guy that you should contact.
• Paint the exterior, especially your front door, again this doesn’t have to break the bank and will have a great impact.
