Getting your Home in the Best Condition to Sell

Bethesda Real Estate

It’s all about location, right? Well, put condition right up there next to it. With homes selling for higher prices in Bethesda because of our access to the downtown areas as well as to premium public schools, there is little left in the purchaser’s budget to fix up a home. And with two earners working it’s also difficult to contemplate how the work will get done.  Getting rid of the clutter and extra possessions we all seem to acrue is the first step. Reparing what we know is not in good order is the second and neutralizing the property so the buyers can see themselves there is the third. 

What is neutralizing?

  • taking down distracting personal photos
  • painting in a neutral color (not white)
  • using a sofa cover over a dated print
  • getting rid of collections that are too taste specific
  • storing or selling extra pieces of furniture that make a room seem smaller
  • organizing closets so the space shows.
  • putting back furniture in rooms which are vacant so the space is highlighted
  • When the home looks beautiful it will photograph beautifully, it will attract buyers and it will sell!
