Did you know a buyer decides if they're going to buy your home within 11 SECONDS of seeing it?
Yep.
The rest of the time they're in the home they're justifying their initial decision.
So, people do really judge books by their covers.
Here are 10 exterior tips for how to win the buyer and sell your home in 11 seconds:
Curb Appeal
- Tidy your lawn and garden.
- Stain and fix your front steps.
- Paint, repair, or replace your front door and/or door handle.
- Tidy up that rusty mailbox.
- Replace all outdoor light bulbs and repair/replace any damaged or broken light fixtures.
- Pressure wash your siding; replace any broken siding or trim.
- Paint or stain your fence, fix your gate.
- Reseal your driveway.
