Selling Highlands NC Homes, Front Porch Appeal
Don’t forget about front porch appeal when selling Highlands NC homes. Curb appeal is what a buyer will first see and experience when looking at property for sale and the front porch adds greatly to this experience. While staging is often thought of as a process for inside the home, it should never be forgotten outside. The front porch is a great place to start when preparing a Highlands NC home for sale.
Where to start
Take a look at your front porch. This includes the steps, the decking, the front door, the siding of your home, and any windows that might be facing the porch. Everything should be clean. This means that trim might need a fresh coat of paint, as might the siding and the front door. Likewise, the windows should be cleaned. Additionally, the fixtures for the front door can be a great upgrade.
Furniture
Is there room for furniture on the front porch of your Highlands NC home? If so, stage it appropriately. There should be room to move, so furniture should not be too big for the space. Likewise, there should not be too many pieces for the space. Create a space where people want to sit and that showcases the comfortable and enjoyable nature of your home
