Cooking Up A Sale

By Tammy J. Pelletier, GRI

When it comes to selling a home, some interesting things play crucial roles. For example, there’s nothing more effective at cooking up sales than a great kitchen.

When prospective buyers view your home, they’ll pay special attention to your kitchen’s cleanliness, layout and storage capacity. That makes this the perfect time to reorganize your cupboards and drawers, get rid of unused items and give your kitchen a fresh, clean look.

Buyers look for kitchens with ample, accessible storage and work space. Make your kitchen as clean, spacious and clutter-free as possible. Even small things like adding a plant or putting new knobs on your cabinets can make a surprising difference.

Thinking about your home from a buyer’s perspective will help you see little improvements that can help get it sold. Which improvements you make and how much you spend is up to you, but my experience enables me to suggest many proven ways to merchandise your kitchen — and the rest of your house.  I’ve compiled a list of websites on home improvements and a variety of toher topics.  Just drop me a quick comment for the list.

  2. Great advice!

    I don’t know how bad you are getting hit with these foreclosures in Rhode Island, but out here in Las Vegas we are getting slammed with them.

    I just wrote a blog myself about how buyers breathe a huge sigh of relief when they see a well put together home.

    A clean kitchen is such a simple thing and quite often so overlooked. Thanks for bringing to people’s attention!
