One of these apartments is the primary residence of the owner of the building. The advices below apply mainly to the main housing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">First impressions are important<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Remember, when a prospect comes to look at your main housing, the first thing he will see is your housing front door ! Be sure that it is fresh, and clean. Be sure your lawn and landscaping is well manicured and trim looking. Be sure your yard is free of refuse and leaves. If it snowed, be certain that you\u2019ve removed the ice and snow from walk and steps.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">What you show is what you get<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Faded walls and worn woodwork will reduce the appeal of your property. Why try to tell a prospect how your property could look\u2026 When you can show him by a reasonable amount of redecoration? A quicker sale at a higher price will result. Invest in wallpaper in the kitchen or bathroom. It will pay dividends for you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Let the sun shine in<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Open those drapes and curtains all the way, so the prospect can see how bright and cheerful your property is.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Fix that leaky faucet<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Since dripping water discolors sinks and suggests faulty or worn-out plumbing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Little things mean a lot<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Take a few minutes to check to be sure that your doors don\u2019t stick or have loose knobs on them. Don\u2019t forget your windows. Get all those minor flaws fixed since they detract from your property value.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Safety first and always<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Make sure that the stairs are free from any obstacles and that everything is tidy because visitors will want to see everything, safely!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">From top to bottom<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Display your basement, and other utility space by removing all unnecessary articles. If necessary, call companies like 1-800-got-junk.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Bathrooms sell homes \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Make these rooms sparkle ! Check and repair any damaged or discolored caulking in the bathtubs and showers, and be sure that the area is bright.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Bedrooms shouldn\u2019t sleep \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Keep these rooms bright and cheerful. Remove any excess furniture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Shine on \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Your housing\u2019s illumination can be a \u201cwelcome\u201d sign to that prospective buyer! Turn on all of your outside and inside light when showing your property at night and he\u2019ll feel glowing warmth as a result of your lighting.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Two\u2019s a couple &amp; three\u2019s a crowd<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Don\u2019t have too many people present during a property inspection, since the potential buyers will feel like an intruder and want to hurry through your property.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Curb your dog<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">A dog is \u201cman\u2019s best friend\u201d, but not when showing your property. Keep all pets out of the way and not underfoot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Silence is golden<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Be courteous and friendly, but don\u2019t try to \u201cforce\u201d conversation with a potential buyer. He\u2019s there to inspect your property.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Be it ever so humble<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">There\u2019s no place like your property. Never apologize for the appearance of your property. If any objections or derogatory comments are offered, let me answer them ? that is my job.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Stay in the background<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">I know the buyer\u2019s needs and desires and can better emphasize the virtues of your property when you\u2019re not \u201ctagging along\u201d. If there are any questions, I will call you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Don\u2019t put the cart before the horse\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Trying to sell the prospective purchasers any of the furniture or furnishings which you\u2019re not taking with you, before they\u2019ve purchased your property, can often lose the sale\u2026 so \u201ccool it\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This section is intended primarily for the owner occupant of multiplex &#8211; usually from 2 to 5 apartments.
