Thinking about selling your home? We can help!
Preparing to sell a home can be overwhelming. There are countless things to prepare and never enough time to do it all. Homeowners are so busy preparing the interior of the house they forget the exterior! Curb appeal is so important when listing your home, especially in Portland. We all like to dress up for job interviews or dates. Dress your PNW house up with a little pick me up as well.
Potential Clackamas buyers will typically make a decision on if they want to look at a house within 30 seconds of seeing pictures. Typically, the first pictures they see are of the outside. Buying houses online is also becoming more and more popular. These are just a few reasons it is important to make sure to spend some extra time on the exterior of your home as well.
What do you need to do? Declutter the front yard. Pack away some of your extra decorations. Get a new welcome mat. Power wash the exterior of the house and your driveway. It is also important to make sure your roof and gutter are clean. The rain season that we experience in Portland, Milwaukie area really takes a toll on your roof. Roofs are an expensive repair and something realtors and potential buys don’t want to deal with early in the purchase. Sometimes simply washing your roof, removing and moss, and cleaning your gutters can make it look newer and more appealing.
