Basking Ridge Homes For Sale

Open Houses are a good time to get potential buyers and agents to see the inside of your home and fall in love. Some buyers live for Open Houses! They have their checkbooks ready and are in the mood to make decisions about buying a Basking Ridge home. Below are some tips to help you have a productive open house:

Tip #1

Clear away any items such as jewelry, coins or coin collections, check books, credit cards, and prescriptions.  Put away mail and any other important documents that you don’t want people to see.

Tip #2

Clear all clutter, shine hardwood floors, vacuum and dust. Clear leaves, mow the lawn, or shovel all walks if it is winter. First impressions last!

Tip #3

Open up curtains, blinds, and any other window coverings during the open house and also leave all the lights on.

Tip #4

Get some soft-scented candles, mild-scented plug-ins or potpourri appeals to get the buyers attention.

Tip #5

Soft and soothing music also helps ambiance.

Tip #6

The areas people look at the most are the bathrooms and kitchen. Make these rooms sparkle to get the attention of the buyers.

Tip #7

Plan the day away from your home and let your Basking Ridge real estate agent do the job. Relax, have fun and don’t think about it until you get back. Your Realtor will report any interested parties and if there are any offers.

Tip #8

Plan on at least one Open House as soon as the house goes on the market and one a month.

Open Houses are just a part of the selling process. Be prepared and you could sell your home that very day! Call Adrienne Francis today at 201-259-4449 for more information about selling your home in Basking Ridge.
