- Make sure your home is easily accessible: Make sure that your driveway, sidewalks, and pathways are all clear including any back steps if you have any.
- Keep the heat on: Keep the heat going in your home, especially if you know you have an upcoming showing. Having a warm and cozy home helps to give buyers a good first impression.
- Show off winter assets: If you have a fireplace in your home, now is the perfect time to show if off. Having a fireplace going during a showing really adds to the ambiance. If you haven’t had your fireplace cleaned in awhile, make sure you have it serviced beforehand.
- Don’t forget about your outdoor features: During the warmer months it’s common for buyers to go outside to check out the yard, etc. Make sure that during these colder months you clear off a deck or patio, etc. as much as you can to make sure it’s visible. If it’s too much to clear things off out back, be sure that these outdoor assets are listed in the marketing materials so that buyers can get the whole picture.
