Curb appeal is very important during a home sale. Most potential buyers will begin forming opinions about the house within less than one minute of pulling up to the curb. Make house numbers easy to see from the street, potential buyers can’t fall in love with your house if they can’t find it. Keep the lawn mowed and garden beds well maintained. Keep the sidewalks, driveways and walkways free from kids toys and other items, so potential buyers can make their way safely and enjoyably to the front door. Create a front entry where potential buyers feel welcomed and invited into the home.
