OPEN HOUSE GUIDE

It’s almost time for the For Sale sign to go up, and timeto make sure your home will be looking its best whenthe fi rst prospective purchasers walk through the door.A clean, uncluttered house looks bigger and moreinviting, so begin by packing away bulky or unusedfurniture and making the best use of your space. Beruthless when you go through closets, spare rooms andcupboards.If you haven’t used that bread - making machine for awhile, and if you’re not likely to need that extra set of china or cutlery in the next few weeks, pack it away.Those knick-knacks on the mantelpiece may havesentimental value to you, but they’ll just look like knick-knacks to the people who come through your home. Takea deep breath and move them out of sight. You can makea head start on packing by cleaning off bookshelves,clearing clothes, shoes, extra towels and bedding out of closets, and boxing the kids’ toys, out-of-season sportsequipment and garden tools.

Take a tour of your home and make a note of all thoseeasy-to-miss spots that need a good cleaning. Wash downthe walls, windows and woodwork. Scrub sinks, toilets,bathtubs and kitchen appliances until they sparkle.Clean out the cupboards under the sink, dust the tops of baseboards and wash all window coverings.The more thorough the clean-up, the easier it willbe to keep your home looking its best for visitsfrom your REALTOR® and prospective buyers.Inexpensive fi x-upsp pNow is also the time to fi x the cracked light-switchplates, broken door handles, leaky faucets and squeakydoors you’ve learned to live with for years.Shabby kitchen cupboards and a dingy hallway willbenefi t from a fresh coast of paint in a neutral colour –this is not the time to start experimenting with dramaticpaint schemes.Similarly, heavily-patterned wallpaper or brightly-coloured accent walls may tend to distract buyers from

other features, or make it hard for them to imagine howtheir belongings will look in the room. If you can, repaint or paper the walls in a subtle colour.It’s often worth replacing carpet or fl oor coverings that are in really rough shape. If the state of your kitchenfl oor is diminishing the impact of the whole room,perhaps inexpensive peel-and-stick tiles can improvethe situation.Ask yourself if improvements like this will make your home more saleable, and do they justify the cost.Get expert advicepREALTORS are very familiar with the housing market and consumer preferences and can help you decidewhich improvements will be appealing to buyers. Amajor investment – adding a garage or deck, for example– may not be recovered through a higher selling price.Conversely, something as simple as replacing tornscreens or fi lling cracks in walls and ceilings can addconsiderably to your home’s saleability.
