Tip #3 Get Your House Ready to Sell

You've probably heard that curb side appeal is most important. It's the first impression anyone has of your home. I've had buyers reject a home without even entering based on the condition of the yard.

Spruce up the yard.

You don't have to spend a lot of money on landscaping or a landscaper. Simply clean it up.

Start at the front door. Perhaps it needs a fresh coat of paint. Most of the time an entry just needs the dust and cobwebs cleaned off. Polish the door knob and lock. Do the address numbers stand out?

A large planter with a blooming plant on the front porch will add appeal.

Prune shrubs and trees.

Keep the lawn freshly mowed and trimmed. If watering restrictions permit, try to keep it green.
