How to Show Home at its Best in the Fall


Selling Your Home in the Fall and How to Show Your Home Best!
It is a popular belief that Spring and Summer are the best seasons to sell your house. But, this is not entirely true! If you want to sell your home in fall, there are many ways to make sure that your house looks attractive and cozy to the buyer.
Fall- A Good Time to Sell Your House
Contrary to popular belief, fall is actually a good time to put up your house for sale. It is the holiday season, and families set out together to go house hunting. Specially people looking for a place as a holiday gift for their families, are the most probable buyers. Moreover, due to the approaching Christmas celebrations, buyers tend to haggle less on the terms of the purchase of the property, and hence the transaction takes lesser time. Only serious buyers visit your house during fall, and thus you are saved from dealing with a long line of people traipsing mud and dirt through your house.
You can turn fall to your advantage, by taking simple actions to make your house look attractive and cozy to the buyer.
First Impression!
Make sure that your house looks clean, tidy and cozy from the outside too. A good first impression will go a long way in making the buyer decide in favor of your house. Remember, the first impression is usually the last one!
Spruce Up Your House
Give your house a fresh coat of paint from the outside. Keep your lawn mowed and tidy to give a good image of the house.
Make Your Yard Look Appealing
You can plant fall flowers like asters, chrysanthemums etc. in your backyard to make it look charming. These flowers will add a touch of freshness to your house, and will compliment the fall season. Rake the leaves regularly, but don't worry too much - some of the charm of fall is the colorful leaves.
Interior Decorating 
You can decorate your house to complement the season. Pick neutral shades for the walls, and use warm colors like maroon, burgundy, rust and plum red for your cushions and curtains. It will make your house look warm and welcoming.
Upgrade Your Heating System
While you invest in your house by painting its exterior, and picking suitable colors for its interior decoration, make sure to also invest in your house heating system. A charming house with an improper functioning heating system will not attract the buyer at all. When you start making your house ready to put up for sale, make sure to upgrade your heating system. 
Adding extra touches like light fragrances, and door wreaths to your house will make it look attractive and charming. So, go ahead and use your creativity, and make your look like any buyer’s dream house!
