When selling your home, you need to take a good look at your property with an unbiased eye. A clean, appealing, well-maintained home has much better odds of selling – not only for more, but faster than one that is not. When it comes to real estate, first impressions really are lasting impressions.
This is not to say that a major renovation is in order. There are no guarantees that you would recover the costs of an enormous overhaul. Instead, take a more conservative approach and make cosmetic improvements that can make a seemingly overall refurbishment.

- Mow the lawn

- Maintenance and Repairs
- Touch-up painting

- Visible house numbers
