Home Features Signs
If you are a Realtor reading this it might seem obvious that you should sell the house to the potential buyers, but are you doing it effectively?
Other than the owner you know more about the house than anyone else and you may have put some of the information into a Feature Sheet or an Enhancements and Improvements Sheet, but when the person most interested in buying the home is walking through it are they going to appreciate all of the subtleties of the home?
If you are walking them through the house and remember all of the features you can point them out, but here is a better idea.
Type or write out the features on a small, plain index card or tent card and place or tape the Feature Signs around the house.
For example if there are self-closing drawers in the kitchen you could have a card that reads “I am self-closing – Try Me” taped to the drawer. If a closet door leads to extra large storage space place a sign on the door that reads “More than a closet – 80 square feet of storage“.
Think of all of the buyers that wander through houses appreciating only the tip of the iceberg.
