Well, I am getting a little personal with this post. For those that don’t know me personally, I make references to Barbie A LOT. I love Barbie. She is a beautiful, hard-working woman who has worn many hats. I strive to be like that. She would also win any beauty contest even at 50. I believe that men and women alike love to look at pretty things. Whether it is a human being or a pretty home, IT’S ALL A BEAUTY CONTEST.
Let’s really look at a beauty contest.
A beauty contest is a competition based mainly on physical beauty of its contestants (active listings in your neighborhood). Although such contests often incorporate personality, talent and criteria. Winners of beauty contest are often called “BEAUTY QUEENS”
Is your property at BEAUTY QUEEN status? Before you hit the stage get all the little things finished. Patch the cracks, Paint the trim, Oil the squeaks, and fix the screens, just to name a few.
Find a friend or professional that you will want to hear the truth from. Better yet, get a pre-sale inspection. A professional inspection can identify problems that could throw a sale. Know the problems in advance and get them fixed. If there are no major problems than publicize that to the nervous buyer. It shows that you have nothing to hide.
Clean, Clean, Clean! You should be able to eat off the floors.
Also, banish the smells. Things that look pretty usually smell pretty.
Appeal to the senses. A home that Looks Pretty, Smells Pretty, and Feels Pretty that is the “BEAUTY QUEEN”.
Your home being a “BEAUTY QUEEN” equals your home “SOLD”!
