Tips for Selling Your Home in the Spring

by The Hat Team

Spring is a great time to sell a house. In fact, per a Zillow study, homes listed between May 1 through May 15 sold, on average, around 18.5 days faster than homes not listed during this period. Add this to the fact that the largest number of buyers are actively searching for homes in the months of April, May and June and you will see that getting your property on the market this time of year is a must. This is especially true now because there is still a shortage of homes for sale, so buyers are on the hunt!

Here are some tips that will help your house stand out among the other homes that get put on the market in spring:

  1. Wash windows inside and out and polish all mirrors. A little bit of sparkle goes a long way in impressing potential buyers.
     
  2. Rake the yard and trim back bushes. Your yard is the first thing people will see. Dead leaves and debris do not paint a pretty picture. In addition, you want as much natural light as possible flooding through your windows, so make sure bushes aren’t blocking the rays.
  3. Mow the yard diagonally and edge along the driveway and sidewalks. Mowing diagonally makes yards look larger. And edging shows that you give attention to small details. 
     
  4. Plant yellow flowers. Yellow tulips and daffodils promote feelings of happiness and contentment.
     
  5. Clean window treatments and open windows. It will be worth your while to take down your drapes, curtains, and blinds to clean them and give them a crisp, fresh look. Weather permitting, opening windows lets the fresh air in and gives the whole house the feeling of spring.
  6. Have fresh, fragrant flowers in the house. Artful home-staging brings color and pleasant aromas indoors.
     
  7. Polish floors to a high gloss. Make those floors shine! Refinish them if necessary.
     
  8. Use light colors. Even if you must spend a little to replace items things like towels, linens, throws, and sofa pillows are inexpensive accents that will pay off.  Use soft, spring colors such as yellows, pinks, pale blues, and lavenders to light up a room.
  9. Spruce up your entryway. This is the part of your home where buyers will get their first impression. Make it a good one!

Things that Make Buyers Fall in Love with a House

by The Hat Team


Perhaps you have imagined your dream house. You’ve pictured it in your mind, created lengthy Pinterest boards with images, but can only hope that you might find it in real life. Some buyers must look for a long time before finding the home of their dreams, but others know right away.

When reality matches the vision you have for your home, you might fall in love at first sight.

Here are some things that make buyers know they had found “the one” the moment they see it:

  1. A GORGEOUS FRONT PORCH

Nothing says “welcome home” better than a beautifully appointed front porch. A creative front door with porch railings painted a complementary color is a great way to draw a potential buyer into a home. That first look can make or break the interest of buyers.

  1. STANDING OUT AMONG THE CROWD

That neighborhood full of “cookie cutter” houses may be the right area for you, but you don’t want your house to look like everyone else’s. A home that stands out is the one for you. For example, maybe that one white brick house in a sea of red brick houses is just different enough to make it the right one for you.

  1. LAYOUT

Open concept has been popular for a long time, but maybe your dream house affords more privacy. When you walk into a home that has defined rooms that serve specific purposes, you have found what you have envisioned as the perfect home for you.

  1. THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Perhaps the inside doesn’t matter quite as much as the outside to you. Despite the imperfections in the house itself, that huge, beautiful yard is all you ever wanted. Or maybe any house in a neighborhood that provides access to walking trails and open spaces will do the job.

  1. GOOD BONES

If your dream house is one that you design yourself, then you might just fall in love with a fixer upper that has good bones. Just make sure to educate yourself about what it will take to make the vision you have for your home a reality.

  1. LOCATION

Do you have a work commute that sucks the joy out of life? Finding a home that is in just the right location can certainly be the fulfillment of a dream home!

  1. KITCHEN

A chef’s kitchen with high end appliances and tons of counter and storage space may be all it takes for the cook in the family to say “this is the one!”

No matter what you are looking for in a “dream home”, Sandra Nickel and her Hat Team of professionals can help you find it. And if you are selling your home, they can assist you in highlighting those aspects that will make buyers fall in love at first sight!

If you are in the market to buy or sell a home (or both), let me Sandra Nickel, and my Hat Team of Professionals assist you with all your real estate needs! Call us today at 334-834-1500 and check out https://www.homesforsaleinmontgomeryalabama.com for more information.
