Ways to Make Your House Market-Ready During COVID-19

Were you planning to sell your house before COVID-19 hit? Read how you can make improvements to your home to make it buyer-ready while you have the time.

The state-wide stay-at-home order has given homeowners the time to implement those long-awaited improvements. While sheltering in place, consider revamping your house in Arizona to make it buyer-ready once the housing market rebounds. We have compiled a list of helpful remodeling tips to increase your home’s value and overall aesthetic. This will ensure that your Arizona home stands out when you are ready to put it on the market.

Paint 

A simple and inexpensive way to enhance your home in Arizona is to get painting! Pick neutral colors that are buyer-friendly and that will open up the spaces in your house. Avoid flashy or trendy shades when selecting your palate in order to appeal to a wider range of buyers.

De-clutter 

When buyers are looking at homes, they want to be able to envision themselves living there. An easy way to create a desirable space is to clean out and organize closets and drawers. Shelving and organizing systems can be ordered online and installed without much hassle. All personal items and photos can be stowed away as well, prior to showing the house.

Deep-clean

Keeping your house sanitary is a top priority in today’s climate. Consider taking your cleaning routine a step further by tackling baseboards, grout, carpets, and light fixtures. Break out the heavy-duty cleaning supplies and make sure the house is spotless before buyers view the space. This will prove to potential buyers that the house has been well-taken care of and is move-in ready.

Exterior improvements 

A buyer’s first impression is the exterior of your house, condo, or patio home. In order to boost its curb appeal while quarantining, complete simple landscaping tasks. These can include, planting hearty annuals, trimming foliage, and removing dead weeds or branches. This will instantly improve how your house looks from the street. Adding a seating area or other furniture will make your home appear welcoming and inviting as well.

Backyard maintenance 

When people are preparing to buy houses in Arizona, they often look for swimming pools. Pools are large selling points, especially in the hot, summer months. Make sure your pool water is as clear as it can be and that your backyard is maintained and well-staged. Skimming your pool’s surface for debris and scraping the calcium from your pool tile will instantly improve the look and quality of your area. Check to ensure that any water features are functioning properly because this can be another selling point for buyers.

Take advantage of your free time by preparing your home for potential buyers. Not only will these enhancements improve your chances of selling, but they will also make your home a more enjoyable place for you and your family to live while quarantining.
