amazing first impression. A well-prepared house can even catch the eyes of buyers who never even intended to visit your home. Drive-by buyers who look at your home should immediately feel as though they want to go inside. This won’t happen if you have poor landscaping, a dingy exterior, or an unkempt yard. Look around your yard and list everything that needs a little work. • Are your shrubs, trees, flower gardens, and walkways tidy? • Is there trash or just a general mess in your yard? • Does everything (front light, garage door, porch rails, etc.) function properly, and look its best? • Could outdoor features, like patio furniture or the garage door, be updated with a quick coat of paint?
Chances are, you’ll have some improvements to do. Take heart:
