CAN YOU SEE THE LIGHT? Illumination is like a welcome sign. The potential buyer will feel a glowing warmth when you turn on all of your lights for an evening inspection. During the day, open the shades and let the sun in.
THREE'S A CROWD - Avoid having too many people present during showings. The potential buyers will feel like intruders and hurry through the house. Also,too many people in a room make it feel smaller.
MUSIC IS MELLOW - But not when showing a house. Turn off the stereo or television. Let the salesperson and buyer talk, free of disturbances.
PETS UNDERFOOT? - Keep them out of the way-preferably out of the house.
SILENCE IS GOLDEN - Be courteous but don't try to force converstion with the potential buyer. He wants to inspect your house, not pay a social call.
BE IT EVER SO HUMBLE - Never apologize for the appearance of your home. After all, it has been lived in. Let the trained salesperson answer any objections. This is their job.
STAY IN THE BACKGROUND - The salesperson knows the buyers requirements and can best emphasize the important features of your home. You will be called if needed.
WHY PUT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE? Trying to dispose of furniture and furnishings to the potential buyer before he has purchased the house often loses a sale.
A WORD TO THE WISE - Let your Realtor discuss price, terms, possession and other factors with the customer. He is eminently qualified to bring negotiations to a favorable conclusion.
USE A PROFESSIONAL - Show your home to prospective customers only by appointment and through a REALTOR. This helps to close the sale faster.
CURB APPEAL - Keep your lawn trimmed and edged. Make sure your yard is clear of refuse. A few dollars invested at the local nursery to brighten up flower beds will help.
