  How to Attract Buyers    
Homes that look their best sell faster, and usually for every dollar that they're worth. A little improvement in the appearance of your home can go a long way toward impressing prospective buyers. The following suggestions will enable you to show your home at its best.

Showing Your House
• Open curtains and blinds during the day; keep lights on at night.
• Have the heat or air conditioning at a comfortable level.
• Keep children and pets from distracting buyers.
• Open shower curtains to make smaller bathrooms look larger.
• Remain in the background, or, if possible, be absent when the agent shows your home. Some buyers feel uncomfortable going through a home when the owner is present.
• Give the house a "homey" feel by having some fresh bread or a batch of cookies baking in the oven. The aroma also will carry over into other rooms.
Preparing Your House
• Repaint the home's interior and exterior areas, if needed.
• Repair or replace broken features such as steps, windows screens, etc.
• Be sure the faucets, drains, light switches, etc. are working properly.
• Clean the interior of the house.
• Arrange the furniture in an appealing fashion.
• Clean out closets and make sure the home is free from unnecessary clutter.
• Tidy and manicure the lawn and yard.
