"I worked with Joy Riley at Westcott Properties beginning in July 2022 It was an unusual (or perhaps not?) situation having to sell my mom’s house upon her move into assisted living Bad market timing but Joy was available to guide me through the process of things to take care of, like removing items from the home, cleaning etc I would not otherwise know where to start Joy also very understanding of the peculiar situation of my mom, listening to my concerns and offering assurances I would not ordinarily expect that from a real estate agent"

-John Albanese

PRE-MARKET CHECKLIST

Declutter and Organize

Your house and rooms look larger with less items in them - a house that is overflowing gives the impression there is not enough stor- age space

Repair & Maintain

Make updates and repairs to improve appeal and value. Addressing small issues prevents buyers from feeling like they have a to-do list as soon as they move in

Consider Staging

This can be a great way to breathe new life into homes which may be in need of upgrades and im- provements

Focus on Curb Appeal

This is a buyer’s first impression of your home! Consider hiring a professional landscaper if your budget allows.

Daily Housekeeping

A daily housekeeping routine will ensure your home is kept in tip top shape and you are ready for showings.

Clean, clean clean! The house should look spotless! Consider a professional cleaner if your budget allows.
