Getting Ready For Showings – Guidelines For Andover MA Home Showings

It is a good idea to make your Andover MA property presentable before showings. When potential buyers view your home, they must be able to imagine living there. Getting ready for showings involves some basic tasks and can result in your home selling sooner and for more money. In this article you will find guidelines for Andover MA home showings.

Getting Ready For Showings – Guidelines For Andover MA Home Showings

Clearing the Clutter

Give your residence a good cleaning. Messy surfaces and floors reduce the interest of potential buyers. Be sure to eliminate clutter from your Andover MA home. Cluttered spaces or oversized pieces of furniture can make the house look smaller. Think about renting a storage space for extra furniture and rarely used items. Arrange closets, kitchen cabinets, and other spaces as buyers have the tendency to peek inside. A clean and clutter-free Andover MA property allows visitors to see past your personal furnishings.

A Generic Andover MA Home

While your Andover MA home is listed for sale, make the space less about your personal style. This means storing any items that may distract buyers or give them adverse impressions about who you are as a home owner. Eliminate family photos and items that make strong religious or political statements.

Protect Easily Stolen Items

Regardless of how closely you or your agent monitor visitors, accidents and thefts do happen. Protect your family heirlooms and other items by placing them in a safe place. Pay specific attention to small pieces that can be easily stolen. Lastly, Young children may be with their parents at Andover MA home showings, so secure any items that are easily broken and within reach of small guests.

Fix and Replace

Hide any fixtures not included in the sale of your Andover MA home. This reduces confusion on what comes with the house. Also identify needed repairs such as holes in walls, damaged floor tiles, and dripping drains. When potential buyers see such problems that are unfixed, they imagine that you must also neglect important repairs in your residence throughout your ownership.

Getting Ready For Showings and Last Minute Tasks

Lastly, there are some to-do’s that you should complete immediately before a showing.

  • Take Out the Trash
  • Organize the Bed
  • Put Away Laundry
  • Brighten up the Space

Getting ready for showings will pay off with more buyer interest and better offers. For more information on getting ready for showings or guidelines for Andover MA home showings, contact Scott Strang at 617-312-6717 or scott@scottgg.communityhomesforsale.com.
