First impressions matter. We always try to put our best foot forward when preparing for a first date or a job interview. When it comes to selling a house, the house needs to make an impressive first impression. For the longest time, the curb appeal of a house was the initial interest in the home.

 

Smile for the camera

Today, curb appeal still matters but for a different reason. Instead of driving past a desirable home, buyers will surf through pictures of the home before ever going inside. Sometimes, they may never see it in person if they don’t like what they see online. Improving the exterior of the home should be high on the to-do list but the interior also needs to show well. Altering the interior lighting to look best in a photograph is the new manicured lawn in today’s home buying market.

How to Improve Curb Appeal

In todays market, the interior and exterior need to make a good impression which does call for twice the work. In the visual society we live in today, buyers make quick judgments about a home within seconds of clicking on the listing. Check out these 4 DIY Tips for improving your curb appeal both online and off.
