You never get a second chance to make a first impression. When it comes to selling your home, it’s advice to take to heart.
We’ve all heard of the expression “curb appeal,” but don’t stop at the curb when you’re trying to boost the visual appeal of your home’s exterior. Think all the way up to the front door.
Here are a few simple ways to boost front-step appeal:
1. Place a new welcome mat on your porch.
2. Keep the area spic and span. Sweep daily and remove flyers and newspapers.
3. Brighten up the area with flowers, window boxes or other landscaping elements.
As with so many aspects of having a house in show-ready condition, it’s often the little things that add up. So take the time to make sure your front doorway is attractive to all who visit. After all, the perfect buyer may be your next visitor.
