Now that we have touched on the sidewalks and driveways, let’s move onto another thing that can really help your home sell and that is an accent door.  For those of you that do not know exactly what this particular door is, it can actually be your screen door or even just switching up the color of your door on the outside.

Adding in color or changing out a regular screen door for a decorative one can really make the home that much better and can certainly ensure that your home will be noticed.  Reds, greens or even yellows are all fantastic colors whenever you are looking to spice up your home on the outside a little bit.

You want to make sure that you choose a color that compliments your home though, so make sure that it looks nice on the outside!

Now that we have talked about how you can advertise via the standard open house sign and where you need to put that sign, it is now time to talk about other means that you can advertise your open house.

The internet is a fantastic thing that you can use to truly get the word out there that you are having an open house and where.  Places like Craigslist.org and even the classifieds are fantastic to truly let the public know that you are having an open house.

You want to make sure that you use the free means of internet, that way you can make sure that you are not going over your budget on your advertising – that is something that every single real estate agent worries about, I know that.

If there is one thing that I know about real estate, it is that if you are going to have an open house, it is very, very important that you advertise it.  There are so many times that a real estate agent, mainly the newer ones that will plan an open house and just put up a few open house signs and only a few prospective home buyers will show up – if this has happened to you more than once, it is time for you to switch up your style and that is exactly what we can help you with!

One of the first things that you need to learn is make sure that you place any open house signs on well-trafficked streets and ensure that the signs are getting the most exposure – that way, everyone can see that you are having an open house and they are welcome to stop by!

Balloons are also a fantastic way to draw people to your sign and also to the home, so that might be a fantastic thing that you can do to attract people to your open house.  Stay tuned for more tips in the next blog!
