Real Estate Selling advice for Worcester County Ma.

Want a Fast Sale? Upgrade Your Home’s Exterior.

Everyone wants a quick sale when trying to offer a home for sale in Worcester Ma.

Most home sellers are going to wait weeks if not months before their property actually sells. Real estate agents understand and promote the benefit of staging the interior and the exterior of the home for a fast sale and with good reason. The appearance of the outside of a home enhances what’s commonly referred to as curb appeal. It’s an important part of enticing potential buyers to step inside for a long look. If you want to sell your home quickly, take the time to upgrade one or more of its exterior features to increase its attractiveness.

Major Improvements

Unless the building actually needs a major improvement, you probably won’t be making any of these changes. However, if the home is in need of any of the following repairs, you should make them to improve your chances of selling quickly. A good Property Management Company can help you and some offer flexible options to support you.

• A new roof
• Replacing cracked sidewalks or exterior steps
• Repairing a driveway
• Porch or deck repairs If you need to close settlement by a certain date, you can easily make a few exterior improvements to encourage buyers to consider purchasing your property. Many of the upgrades simply provide a facelift that makes your property more attractive, while some of them offer functional enhancement along with an element that instills beauty to the property. You can discuss your thoughts with your real estate agent. As an experienced professional, this individual might be able to tell you which changes could lead to a quicker sale.

Exterior enhancements that you should consider include:

• Adding landscape lighting to accentuate architectural details and to promote
• safety
• Painting wooden shutters and/or window frames
• Pointing brick exteriors
• Getting professional landscaping
• Installing a border fence
• Creating a rock garden
• Cleaning and staining the deck
• Installing a security door

Many of the tasks that you complete when selling a home will make little difference to some buyers. In general, however, taking the time to improve the appearance of the home on the outside as well as on the inside can help to promote a faster sale. A home that is move-in ready is always more desirable than a home that needs a lot of work. Take the time to make necessary changes to the outside of your home and consider a few cosmetic ones, particularly if you are in a hurry to sell.
