Are you planning on listing your property this summer? If so, you’ll want to maximize its value—and your return on investment (ROI). One of the best ways to do that is by ensuring your home looks great and really makes a positive first impression on prospective buyers. In this blog post, we’ll outline just a few of the ways that our thorough, professional cleaning services can bring out the best in your home ahead of listing.

Give your home’s curb appeal a boost

For decades, realtors have used the phrase “curb appeal” to describe the phenomenon where prospective buyers do, in fact, judge a book by its cover. What your property looks like from that initial drive up has a significant, subliminal impact on what the prospective buyer thinks it’s worth. Essentially, you want buyers to think, “Wow, this home is a great deal at this price” before they even get to the front door. Curb appeal has that power.

So, how do you best go about maximizing your home’s curb appeal? For one, you should make sure all your front yard landscaping is freshly cut and looks great. If your home’s exterior paint is fading or the stucco is damaged, consider having it repaired and repainted. Finally, call us and have our team of cleaning professionals clean your windows and window screens. Dirty, dusty windows not only look terrible from the outside, but can also negatively impact the view from the inside. They’re not very conducive to selling a home.

Put your home’s best foot forward

Most homebuyers today use online listing services to look through dozens, if not hundreds, of homes on the market. This technology allows them to control what homes they see based on their budget, the number of bedrooms, amenities, and a wide range of other factors. With their search parameters set, your home now has to compete against similar properties on the market in your area. You need to do everything you can to ensure that your home looks like the best buy.

In these apps, buyers generally do not spend much time looking at each property. Instead, they’ll quickly swipe past homes. Now more than ever before, it’s critical that you have well-lit, high-quality photos of your home’s interior and exterior, as these can influence what buyers think about your home in a subliminal fashion. The more buyers who view your home’s listing, the more in-person visits you’ll get. With more in-person visits comes more offers, allowing you to choose the most competitive one and maximize your ROI.

In addition to having a professional clean your carpets, windows, and tile, you should also talk to your realtor about hiring a professional photographer. Having a professional out to your home to take amazing photos and walkthrough videos of your home can result in a much quicker sale at a much higher value. Your realtor will most likely have pre-existing connections with a few such professionals in the area.
