You Can Make A Great First Impression!
Remember You Only Have
Five Seconds!
First impressions in home sales and love at first sight have a lot in common. A potential buyer already knows by the front door and your date knows before the end of the salad course. When you only have five seconds to make that powerful first impression, you can't afford to blow it.
- Reinforce emotional impact with great landscaping -- Take care of the easy things first. Trim trees and shrubery so they frame your home and don't obscure it. It's not expensive and can make a huge difference presenting a spacious lot with caring owners.
- Your front door should be inviting -- Most homeowners come and go by their rear or side doors and rarely use the front door leaving a potential buyer's first impression a shoddy one. Clean the bugs and cobwebs from around the door and give it a fresh coat of paint or varnish. Not expensive and you won't irritate lookers.
- Replace defective or worn door locks -- A lockset that doesn't work properly almost always kills the sale. It hits a buyer where they're most sensitive -- in their sense of security. It's well worth the few dollars it costs to repair or replace broken locks.
- Aromas are remembered. Make them sweet -- If you have pet, smoke or food odors in your home, get rid of them any way you can. Odors trigger emotional responses few are aware of. Potential buyers will appreciate no odor or fresh aromas.
- Deck your home with flowers -- Give a girl flowers and you've won her heart. Pots of colorful flowers around your entrance or a vase of fresh flowers deftly displayed in your home will wow potential buyers.
