Getting Your Castro Valley Home Ready For Sale - #brokermac

Are you considering selling your Castro Valley home in the near future? Does your home appear comfortably lived in or show room ready? Hi, this is Mac with Albert Rogers Realty here in Castro Valley, CA.

If you want to earn top dollar, your home absolutely needs to be showroom ready. Hey, we all live in our homes, me included, but when it’s time to sell, your home is no longer just a home it’s a product on the open market. To gain the highest and best price you probably need to do a few things to dress your home for success. If you have wood cabinets give them a good cleaning and apply some lemon oil to make them shine, it will also give the added bonus of smelling fresh and clean. Make sure you clean your curtains, window panes and sills and dust every blind in the home. Change out all of your HVAC filters and clean the return air grates. Clean every baseboard, yes I said every, baseboard in your home.

Most people, when they sell a car, detail the heck out of it to get the best price and your home is no different. Buyers want to see that you have taken care of your home and that it shows pride of ownership, so take a few days or even a couple of weeks and get down and dirty and clean, clean, clean, I promise it will be worth your while.

For more tips and a long list of items you can do to make sure your home shows it’s very best, send us a message. As always, we are here to help you with all of your home buying and selling needs. This is Mac Rogers. I will see you at my next open house.
