Fall is a great time to sell a house. However, it can be challenging to maintain the all-important curb appeal with the increased yard work associated with the season. Take advantage of these easy-to-do tips for improving your real estate, and increase your chances of making a sale more quickly at the price you want.

Tips to Help Sell a House in Autumn

1. Spruce Up Your Entryway

Realtors know that when you want to sell a house, impressing the buyer with curb appeal helps them decide to see what’s inside. A clean, freshly painted front door and clear walkway look inviting and may attract more potential buyers. Put out a new doormat in a fall color that complements your home, and keep leaves off the walking paths.

2. Increase Light

Washing your windows increases the amount of sunlight that comes through and makes a good impression for prospects driving by. Creating a walkway border with solar lights will highlight your home at night.

3. Freshen Your Landscape

Prospective buyers evaluate a homeowner’s interior home care by the way their yard looks. Rake and blow leaves from the lawn and driveway often to keep them clear. Keep grass cut, use an edger along walkways, and place pots of mums in strategic places for more fall color.
