Curb Appeal
July 10th, 2007 12:01 PM

While you are thinking about selling your house or if you already have your house on the market, try this.  Go outside and cross the street.  Take your camera with you and then look back at your house.  Take a picture or better still, take several pictures from different angles.  Get them printed and see what they look like.

If these pictures say, "Welcome", then you are home free.  However, most often you will see something that could be changes or cut or planted that would make your house look great.  With so many houses on the market at this time, it only takes about 3 seconds for someone to decide not to look because of their impression from the curb.  Not fair you say, well it probably isn't but it is reality. 

If you don't have curb appeal, and that goes for the on-line services, you just won't get the lookers to see how beautiful the inside is.  Plant a few flowers and keep the grass cut.  It will do wonders.
