Your Tulsa home for sale – what it has in common with “dating”

You are preparing your Tulsa home for sale, and it’s a bit like dating in this day and age. Just as single people are searching for mates through online dating sites, home buyers are shopping online also. Everyone wants a lasting and meaningful relationship and they want to make sure they make the right pick – or the right fit!

Of course, whether shopping for a home or searching for a spouse, first you must establish an attraction. If the girl or the home doesn’t look pleasing to you, the chances that you will seek additional information are negligible. So, dress it up! This means power-washing the exterior and adding beautiful landscaping! Paint the exterior and refinish the hardwood floors – we want to look good in our photos!

If the attraction is there, buyers will begin to look for criteria they desire. Is the kitchen open to the family room and is the kitchen updated? Are the light fixtures and towel bars new? You might think you can’t do much to change the layout or flow of your home – and that’s where home staging can really help you out!

Once the attraction and criteria are met, we delve into the guts. How old is the roof, heat and air? Do you have a programmable thermostat and is the hot water heater raised? Is there extra attic insulation that we can’t see from the photos?

If you were trying to attract a date, you wouldn’t dream of displaying a less than perfect photo of yourself on an online dating site. Why would you promote your Tulsa home for sale any differently? It’s the exact same concept.  Look your best and list all of your features!

Follow these simple guidelines, and we’ll find the perfect “match” for your new home buyers!!
