Tuesday's Top 5 Tips

from Melissa Mayer

If you've got an open house coming up or a gathering in your home, there's nothing worse than a pugnant welcome! For this week's #TuesdayTop5_MM I dishing up some basics but often overlooked ways to flip from stink to shine:

1. Clean the fridge & refresh the baking soda
2. Get the carpets cleaned
3. Bake cookies or cake or pies...bake ANTHING!
4. Grab all those decorative soaps & put them in a pretty bowl in the bathroom
5. Clean like you've never cleaned before! Then clean again. 

That's it. No need to overthink it, plus this list will keep you busy.

7 Reasons to Buy a New England Home in the Fall

1. There is less competition in the fall.
2. Sellers are worn out if their homes have been sitting since the late Spring & Summer months.
3. Sellers are more serious in the colder months—there is a reason they are on the market now versus waiting for peak months.
4. You can take advantage of some serious tax-breaks.
5. You can take advantage of some end of year sales to help outfit your new digs
6. Inventory may be slightly less but so is the competition.
7. Better negotiation power.

Professionally Staging Your Home for Selling

It's easy to overlook why staging is so important. For my #Top5Tuesday_MM, here are 5 reasons you don't want to mess this up:

1. First impressions matter

• You don’t get a second chance to make a great first impression and most of us size something up and decide if it's a thumbs up or a thumb's down pretty quick. The same theory applies to selling your home. For instance, a prospective buyer who finds themselves walking into a cluttered home will perceive it as lacking in storage and may not want to come back a second time, let alone seriously consider buying it. That’s why home staging, the method of styling a house to make it more appealing for potential buyers, is so important. It creates a good first impression that will leave your house on the top of your buyers’ wish lists.

September in New England

This fall, New Englanders will see record-breaking warmer temps, and likely moving forward, so it’s easy to fall behind when it comes to caring for your home before the temps drop. A good rule of thumb to help you remember when to jump into the winter house prep mindset is this: when we’ve just started getting cooler nights in a row, that is your reminder to pull out your checklist!
