Are you planning on selling your Houston Texas home this summer? If so, you’re making a smart choice because summer is a great time of year to sell a home but there are a few things that you can do to make your home stand out from others that buyers may be considering.  

#1 – Control the Environment  

The first thing that you can do to help you sell your home is to control the environment. This means that when buyers walk into your home, they are going to find a cool, welcoming space, that makes them want to relax and beat the heat.  

Besides controlling the temperature inside your Houston Texas home, you should also consider having bottles of water, soft drinks or lemonade ready for buyers to drink when they arrive.  

#2 – Take A Vacation  

If you haven’t gone on vacation yet, you should coordinate your vacation with your Realtor® because this will give them more time to show your home without them having to concern themselves about if your home is in “showing condition” when they contact you about bringing someone over to show the home.  

#3 – Highlight Outdoor Features   Does your home have a swimming pool, spa, or other outdoor features? If so, another important thing that you should do is highlight those outdoor features so that they are the things that buyers remember after visiting your property.  

To highlight outdoor features, you should make sure that your pool or spa are cleaned before buyers arrive, your patio or deck is swept / freshly painted, and any outdoor furniture is clean, in good condition and ready for people to sit down, relax and enjoy the space.
