Curb Appeal Checklist

Stand at the curb and view your home as a Buyer might. Which features do you like the most? How might these features be accentuated? What items are negatives- how might they be remedied? Work your way through the checklist provided:

Check the home from the roof line down

  • Is the roof free and clear from obstructions and moss?
  • Are the gutters clear and properly hung?
  • Are the windows clean and free from obstructions (such as overgrown bushes or trees)?
  • Are bushes, trees and shrubs neatly pruned?
  • Are the garage and other out buildings in good repair?
  • Could the driveway need powerwashing or resealing?
  • Inspect the condition of the paint or siding

  • Is it time to power wash the siding?
