Good curb appeal is a major plus when it comes to marketing your home. "A little bit of work on the front of your home can pay big dividends," says Janet Dugan, an experienced Sarasota golf course homes expert.
When a potential buyer pulls up in front of your home, their first impression is absolutely crucial. Sometimes buyers won't even look at a home with
droopy shutters, sagging gutters, peeling paint or a bumper crop of wweds or overgrown shrubs in the front yard. Worse, if they do see these sorts of things, they might come in expecting a "fixer-upper" that they can buy a a bargain price.
If a home looks from the outstide first appearance to be neat and well cared for, that initial good impression will carry over as the buyer steps inside. It is not necessary to hire a professional landscaper, but
do listen to your agent's suggestions when you are considering listing your home for sale. Keep your lawn mowed, and
take care of any exterior maintenance needs that your Realtor points out. Strong curb appeal will help your home sell more quickly and for the highest possible price.
In Sarasota Florida or wherever you may shop for a home, a competent Sarasota realtor like Judie Berger can help you make the right
as you prepare to market your Sarasota Florida home.
