After summer, fall is the second best time of the year to sell a home. A golden time of the year for real estate selling, people are happy and relaxed as temperatures cool, with nary a worry over holiday chores. Now is the time for your listing clients to strike when the iron is hot, before the holiday sales slump. How can you help them attract fall home buyers?
Fall Cleaning
Rake dead leaves and clear overgrown vegetation for a lawn that looks low-maintenance, neat and trim. Likewise, ensure clean windows indoors and out for a home that outsparkles and outshines the competition.
Festive Curb Appeal
Grab a couple large containers of fall arrangements such as mums and marigolds for your sidewalk or porch to imbue instant autumn curb appeal
Home Comfort Health
Nothing can bring real estate selling to a screeching halt like a failed HVAC or fireplace inspection. Encourage your sellers to engage in fall maintenance tasks now to prevent a red face (and potential lost sale) later. Bonus: These tasks help the home both smell and look better to potential buyers.
Fall Scents and Scenery
At show time, add fall colors to the home with fall accent pillows, throws, and table décor. Simmer hot apple cider or place a tray of pumpkin muffins on the stove, imparting an enticing scent to the home.
Lighting to ‘Fall Back’ On
Turn on every light in the house. Lighting is essential to brightening rooms in the fall season.
Fall Treats
Invite those who visit the home to sign a guest book and leave feedback, offering a treat for buyer time, such as individually wrapped chocolates or caramel apples.
