Selling Your Home - Greener is Better

I can't stress enough for those of you who are thinking about selling later this spring or in the summertime - spend the time to make your yard look its best.

By spending a couple of hundred dollars to kill all of your weeds you will make up for it in the time it takes to sell your home.  Also, get out the trimmer and spend some time edging your walkways.

I often bring up the 15 second rule in real estate.  This means that most buyers will have decided what they think about a home and whether or not they are going to buy it within 15 seconds after entering the home.  What does that mean they have based their judgment on?

1) Price

2) Location

3) Curb Appeal - Lot

4) Entrance/Entryway

Everything else they pretty much know about a home through the pictures and information provided on real estate websites.
