Clean Up, Clear Out, Fix and Repair
Needed improvements and repairs can add to the value of your home. Start by walking through your Orlando home looking for improvements that could be made prior to showing your home to potential Orlando buyers. Examine the exterior of your Orlando home carefully.
- Does your Orlando home need washing or maybe a coat of paint?
- Make sure that lawn, trees and other landscaping is neatly trimmed and mowed.
- If the season allows, add flowers here and there for extra color.
- Make sure your yard is free of leaves and refuse.
- Does the interior of your Orlando home need painting?
- Are the windows and window screens clean?
- Does the carpet need cleaning or replacing?
- Do all of the your Orlando home’s mechanical appliances work correctly?
- And don’t forget about those hidden problems that an Orlando buyer’s inspector may find such as leaky plumbing, ungrounded outlets, slow drains or code violations.
- Have your closets clean and organized so they look as large and spacious as possible.
- Remove personal items and knick-knacks throughout the house. They may be items close to your heart, but to a potential Orlando buyer they’re just clutter.
