All this improving is so important. Make it look like a model is my advice and get a realtor you can trust and trust him/her. Ours was a successful realtor and friend for 30 years.
She said, Grace, I am not your friend today, I am a realtor. Paint your bathroom neutral, remove this, this, and this. and take out your perennials. ok ok ok ok....TAKE OUT MY PERENNIALS?????
We did. And we cut the landscaping back to look like we had just planted it. Remulched as we always do in the spring. Brick house with trim painted and especially the front door. Made the curb appeal go way up.
Made a list of her directives and followed them. Took the cats and their food and their litter in car when we showed the house.
Priced it as low as "we could stomach"...as per Bill/( n Brillo) Sold in nine days.
Good luck to all of you getting your house ready to sell and move. This is such a hard part of the process, that and getting rid of stuff.
It is all worth it. We will be waiting here with welcoming hugs.
Good luck and warm caring thoughts heading your way.
