Fox, Licensed Realtor SMOOTHER HOUSE SHOWINGS QUESTION: Do you have any suggestions on how to make your home look its best during showings? ANSWER: The buyer has to LIKE WHAT HE SEES. Minor signs of wear should be corrected. A few dollars spent touching up the front door or replacing worn trim or remov- ing rust stains can add hun- dreds of dollars in sales appeal. Storage space should look, spacious. Toss out or sell all the junk you've been hoarding in closets, attic, basement or 'garage. You'll still be left with plenty. Be sure to stack or hang them in a manner that looks like you have room to spare. Don't give prospects the idea that space is at a premium in your home. IN ORDER TO SELL your home, the buyer must like what he sees. Here are tips for better showings. Please phone Ray A.
