TIP#4 LIGHTINGLight not only gives the illusion of space, but as you know, great lighting can "set the mood". How do you feel when you walk into a bright, sunny space? It make you feel warm, happy, and welcome. This is exactly the way we want a potential buyer to feel.
Here are some things you should do before each showing if possible:- SUNLIGHT: We want as much natural sunlight as possible. Open the drapes, pull up the shades, and open the blinds. Let the sun shine in.
- LIGHTS: First, be sure ALL light bulbs in the house are in working order by changing burnt out lightbulbs. Also, if posssible, turn on all the lights in your home prior to a showing. If the lights are on, the first impression is big and bright. It also keeps the flow of "taking in" your home by not having to disrupt the mood by fumbling for light switches. You could also purchase timers to keep lights on for certain periods of the day if you are working.
- CABINET LIGHTING Turn on the lights in your china hutch, bookcases, etc.-
