The Century 21 First Choice Real Estate Team Can Help You Prepare Your Home For Sale

Making your home visually appealing to potential buyers is one of the most important aspects to selling your home quickly and at a great price. This is also one of the things that home sellers have the most trouble with. Many times when someone has lived in a home for a number of years they become conditioned to the way the home is. Having an objective set of eyes look over your home before it goes on the market can help a home seller to revitalize the home and show it in the best light possible. The Century 21 Real Estate Team in Fort Mill has been helping home sellers with this for over 30 years. Our agents know what makes a home sell fast and at a great price. There are certain things that every home seller should consider when it comes to preparing their home. The Century 21 First Choice Team has a list of tips for preparing your home for sale.

No Clutter. When buyers are inside your home you want them to feel like it is a place they could make their own. Trinkets, pictures, collectibles, and furniture that is specific to your family should be removed and stored. Try to make your home as neutral as possible so buyers can envision what they want.

Repair. Go through the home and check for things that are visually unappealing and broken. The look and functionality of your home will go a long way with a new buyer. There may be things that you have overlooked on repairing because they don’t bother you. Repair those items as you never know what will turn off a buyer.  You do not want to leave the buyer thinking “What else is wrong?”


Deep Clean. This cannot be overlooked. Give your home a thorough top to bottom cleaning. Buyers expect to see your home in tip top shape. A dirty appearance is an immediate turn off. Try to keep your home clean during the entire sales process. You never know when someone will want to go through it.


Revitalize. No matter how long you have lived in your home the areas that you use the most can become worn. There are many products that can bring new life to your home. Shine your floors, polish your fixtures and clean your carpets. This will make your home much more appealing.
