What a perfect time of year to be selling your home! Actually, your home is at it’s most appealing to a buyer from the end of October through January. When we are creating a welcoming & warm atmosphere the buyer’s will feel festive & receptive as well. It will help them picture their family & friends enjoying the home!
Here are three very important ways you can create the atmosphere:
- Like any artist you will want to begin with a clean canvass.Remove all “extras” such as magazines, knickknacks & other distractions.Once these items are boxed & stored you can deep clean all surfaces.Don’t forget to step back & look for any stains on furnishings or carpets.
- Step back & look at your color theme or what colors you would like to flow thru your home for the holidays. Warm, cools, metallic? Now that you have selected you can place groupings of candles, a garland to enhance a feature such as a fireplace or stairwell & enhance your linens in the bedrooms & bathrooms to reflect this color scheme. 3.) Lastly, we want to incorporate the senses. In addition to candles you can make the buyer “feel at home” by greeting them with a fresh pine wreathe at the front door, holiday cookies in the oven or a lit fireplace in cooler weather. All is perfect.Happy Holidays!
